The ideal floor plan that I am looking for would be +3bed / +2bath, 2 car garage, maximum natural lighting, +1800 sq/ft.

not sure what brandon said but ideally your numbers would work like this.  

Up till that point every single tenant I deal with is lying to me.It sucks it has to be that way, but people always feel the landlord is the easiest and best person to screw over and they honestly think the world is theirs.

You need to service them spring and fall, including filling or draining the pans, cleaning the pans and vents, replacing the pads, ideally every season, and lubing the fan and the motor.

Sure Victoria typically early AM's @ the PB or the diner by the circle are ideal and glad you've reached out. 

Ideally, the tenant has either: 1) turned in the keys, 2) given written notification that he moved out, 3) or both.

Ideally, we would like to be picking up more properties for ourselves and also not just accepting any property for the VR rentals as we'd want to maintain a certain standard of home.So are you still doing this now or on the side?

Our ideal scenario would be to find a few people for her to work for.

I ask because I figure that as a foreigner, investing in US property is not ideal from a cash flow perspective unless you're scaling with multiple properties.

My short term goal is to own at least 10 rental properties within the next 8 years (I have 1 now 9 more to go) with positive cash flow (ideally free and clear).
