I have family in Kansas City, MO area so I thought that would be a good place to start since I could visit properties while visiting family.

I lived in a college town and student rentals did very well as did STRs for parents coming in to visit their children.  

If anyone in the forum is interested, send me  DM, I'd post it here just not sure if BP will allow it.I visited and like everyone felt in love with the country.

Could you provide a link to your website?

Looking for in country contacts banks, agents, contractors, recommended areas, etc to prep for a productive visit.  

I have visited many where street view looks awesome and of course you get excited. 

Particularly for your first few properties, I'd highly recommend that you manage the property yourself (if possible), but that's usually only possible (or most effective) if you live near the property or visit it frequently.

I have found that going that extra mile, like the couch covers etc and making sure the person with the disability has the easiest time visiting our place.As someone with a disability (I have a degenerative neurological disorder) and use a cane, I like to make sure folks with similar issues have a good time.

If you are following the rules then everything should be OK.This is no different than a health inspector visiting a restaurant.

Otherwise, the tenant will make excuse after excuse to buy more time as they fall further and further behind.To find an attorney, suggest you visit your local court and lookup the landlord-tenant docket to ID attorneys with the most cases.
