This has definitely played a big factor in the huge growth that this particular market has seen over the past 5-10 years

If you want to get into the market for the appreciation play and are willing to negatively cash flow a bit you could consider a negative DSCR loan.

I would also include a link to this access story that's still playing out.Lac du Flambeau tribe won't lower payments for residents to access reservation properties (msn.com)--------------------I agree with Peter that once the claim is allowed you let the attorneys retained by the title insurer take over fully... getting yourself or your own attorney involved just increases the risk of screwing things up. 

Goal would be to reduce manual work and time intensive tasks2.

For those that wrap a mortgage around a sub-to this will definitely come into play.

Your prospective tenant may prefer a play room vs a BR in the basement so it is a little tricky. 

You'll regret it.A tenant must be a law abiding citizen (no criminal background), willing (credit verification) and able (job income verification only w/ no commission or tip payments included) to pay rent and take care of a home (landlord references)   If they pass all these, then whether they are "nice" or not comes into play.  

Not sure about Subs, but the whole Contr playing field sounds a lot weaker there....just a hunch2) This could just be the people you are attracting or getting unlucky with....just a run of bad luck.

If you're holding that card you can play it whenever you want and get an edge over someone else who doesn't hold that card.Just so you know, lowest capital requirements are 20k, then next level 50k, then in the baller markets you better be ready to be in for 100k in one deal and if that's your entire roll then plan on not sleeping for like 6 months as you worry about every little detail.If you, or anyone, really wants to build a foundation and get into a rhythm of doing 3 - 4 projects per year then you will need to mine the opportunity and it will take more than one market. 

(talk to your CPA/tax professional for more information)- You can request a pack-and-play for your room if needed. - There is an awesome playroom (great for littles) and an arcade (great for kids and adults alike).- There are also childcare options on-site as well, which can be booked via the resort.
