Hire a property management company who will manage it for you.

I found a good turnkey property company out in Memphis.

Take into account your mortgage, a property management company and other expenses and you are lucky if you net $300. 

C. and @Trevor Laramee I went through a local insurance company and was happy with the rate.

If I'm not mistaken, you'll need to setup your RRSP with Trust holding company such as Olympia Trust or Canadian Western Trust, etc. 

(They claimed thousands for electrical using what appeared to be a fake electrical company, and they never had someone out to even check electrical beyond the general.) 

Where another issue arrises is I recently quit my job after becoming pregnant as they would not cover my maternity while overseas, my husband is employed however he works for a UK company and is British so would be unlikely to help us with the situation in the US.

Dont trust this company!

You shouldn't need her social security number to file for eviction.

On the other hand, if you’re financially secure, the low-rate loan and potential appreciation make holding more attractive.
