That should be your focus, not how to purchase the land.  

In the case of the OP, he believes prop taxes are too high, tenants are crazy high risk, STR is too much work, does not want to purchase more.  

Would need to know a bit more before giving a specific direction but it is usually best to hang on to your property and not sell whether you expand on it or rent it out and purchase a bigger property.  

Still appraised higher then my purchase. 

What I don’t understand, and help me on this, is why someone would simply want to purchase the Mortgage/DOT without the note. 

Congratulations on your first purchase.

Both units were filled at the time of purchase, but both had to be evicted a few months later due to failure to pay rent.

Hey BP, I recently purchased my second investment property!

Am currently searching and will be purchasing a property within the next 12-18 months in the Atlanta area.

I've been thinking a lot about Florida and I believe it's a great state for future potential investments such as purchasing and renting out (utilizing the BRRRR Method Of Course).
