It’s all good my friend!  

Maybe a good idea to connect to a local investor friendly realtor who can give good inputs

These bookings need to be from different guests (not the same guest back-to-back) and at full market price, as opposed to discounted stays for friends.2.

Either bank statements showing deposits or Friend of Court printout. 3) Since actual payments may vary, they need to averaged over the 3-6 months verified.Legally, you cannot ask an applicant specifically about child support income, they can only volunteer it.

Especially if they have informed their "friends" of the unit vacancy. 

I pretty much tell my friends expect 12 to 15k in getting the cabin to where you want it for rentals.  

I suggest working with an investor friendly agent so you can get the right guidance!

Hello friends!

You could do direct to seller marketing (cold calling, texting, mailers etc.) and or connect with some of the great agents in the area that are investor friendly who already have deal flow for off market deals.

I think it should suffice to say this approach is not your friend.
