I think broader consumer taste is killing malls, which includes online shopping, but also even where people are choosing to live and how they are spending their time/money, more broadly.I worked for a company that bought a failing mall back in 2012 (online shopping was "killing retail" then too), redeveloped most of it into more open air power center and sold.  

BiggerPockets also has a calculator to analyze deals, and I highly recommend you start this as soon as possible, even if you are not ready to buy.

This move-in ready house features a stove/oven, refrigerator, and dishwasher in the kitchen.

When I return to the country after my Au Pair contract ends, I hope to live in the property as my primary residence and house-hack as well.I understand that investing remotely makes things more challenging, but I am also ready to be uncomfortable and challenge myself in this journey as I know it is 100% possible.

I don't have much money for the next property, but am ready to add to my profile.

It is a considerably good price considering the area, I'm just not sure on whether the rental income is worth paying for.Apart from about $10,000 it is fully rennovated and ready to be rented out within 2-3 months.Thanks for any advice!

Just focusing on the passive income you want to achieve will leave you chasing cash flow which will have you buying properties in worse areas with harder tenancies that seem to cash flow better, but will have large cap ex.Any time someone asks a question about where to invest and it can be anywhere, they aren't ready to invest and are opening themselves up to every pitch in the world on an area.

Unfortunately, that is an expensive time-consuming process.

Turnkey properties are already renovated and tenant-ready, meaning you can focus on the investment side rather than dealing with major repairs.
