My yearly increase is typically in the 1-3% range maybe up to 5% max.

I've run the numbers on homes in our price range within a 3hr drive radius of our zip and they just don't make sense as rental units.I'm fluent in Spanish so other than the financing problem maintaining a rental in Costa Rica vs another market in the USA that requires a flight is fairly comparable from my perspective.Its funny because buying a sub 70k house anywhere in the US would be so easy for us.

Initial thoughts was this is expensive but I have multiple GCs in the 400k range. 

Obviously, the Margaritaville Brand is very strong and they have great amenities, but is it universally appealing so you attract as wide a demographic audience.

Hi Brandon,It's likely more effective to look for private lenders at those ranges as most investors buy cash or use private money at those ranges.

That's the beautiful thing about tech and automation.It can take some time to set up and integrate and implement processes.But once done properly, you can scale quicker and easier and not be worried to take on a book of 189 units per se when the opportunity presents itself.I reverse engineered "scale" within our company and focused on systems and optimizing.Now it's time to monetize 🙏Getting very close to being able to throw gasoline on the fire for scale.We could scale easier in another market but to be honest, not in the mood of being like some of the other nation wide PM's where they do M&A nationwide.Plus, I'm "semi-retired" and prefer to keep it that way hahaThere are limits to growth in our local market but it's not necessary a bad thing.Cheers mate

If you have good credit you should be able to get in the 5.5-5.75% range for your refinance.  

I am just curious for those that have a Schlage Encode lock, have you seen it start going online and offline, especially during very cold weather.The weather at the lakehouse had been in the -15 to -25 range for about a week or so and the lock would go on and offline every hour to 3 hours.

First one would be Zillow Rooms - in terms of range and scope of audience.If you want to be formal and have great photos then try on coliving.com Also I believe that booking.com allows it. 

It seems that properties in the area can range on average from 50k-75k.
