I find condos/townhomes to be easier to manage out of state because the HOA handles a lot of the maintenance, just be aware of condo fees and find a place that is reasonable like $300-400/mo or less if you are lucky.

Mortgage recasting is a great option for homeowners who:Have received a windfall, such as a bonus, inheritance, or proceeds from selling another property.Want to lower their monthly payments without extending their loan term or going through the hassle of refinancing.Are satisfied with their current interest rate and loan terms.How to Get StartedIf you’re considering mortgage recasting, here are the steps to take:Contact Your Lender: Ask if they offer mortgage recasting and confirm your loan’s eligibility.Determine the Lump Sum Amount: Decide how much you can afford to put toward your principal.Calculate Potential Savings: Use an online mortgage calculator or consult with your lender to estimate your new monthly payment and total savings.Submit the Request: Once you’ve made the lump sum payment, your lender will process the recasting and provide a new payment schedule.Final ThoughtsMortgage recasting can be a powerful tool for homeowners looking to reduce their monthly payments and save on interest without the cost and complexity of refinancing.

While it might feel like an extra charge to tenants, these packages often provide value that indirectly benefits the property owner as well—like reduced maintenance calls or ensuring the property is better protected.In my experience managing a large portfolio of properties, these fees are becoming more common due to the thin margins in property management.

Hopefully, you find it helpful and qualifies us to assist you with your goals:)---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Recommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?

As others have stated, you have not provided enough information to determine whether this is a good deal or not.

Fannie Mae will allow you to transfer the deed to an LLC if you decide to try to go the conventional route, but the loan would still be in your names and you'll need to pay a title company a second time post-closing to do this  for you. 3) I can't speak for the area so no comment there4) If you're self managing, make sure you find vendors you can trust in the area since you won't be able to easily verify if an HVAC guy, plumber, etc. is trying to rip you off and tell you to buy something you don't actually need. 5) Make sure you have clear alignment of goals and a clear operating agreement that spells out what to do if those goals start to not align in the future since you'll be jointly obligated to these properties. 

Then there’s fraud or misrepresentation, where borrowers inflate project values or provide false documentation.

Maybe network with local hunting ranches see if you could find an investor to help manage the property, the wildlife, advertising and lodging.

Now, I’m looking at Florida, but it seems like most investors are focused on buying instead of arbitrage.I’m aware of the zoning regulations, but I’m curious—how easy is it to find landlords in Business and Tourist zones who are open to leasing for subleasing?
