Hello All, I am analyzing my deal and here are the detailsSmall Town , Couple of big Manufacturing plants and HQ for 1 of the fortune 500 Client.

However, if you prefer to make a single payment due to cash flow considerations, that can also work well, especially if you can make it substantial. 

@Kevin Hintz yeehaww interest rates are lower and saving account growing for capital and I have chosen couple of class A and B neighborhood in Myrtle Beach, SC and the Washington DC areas to buy from; also met some realtors and getting familiarized with those area landlord/tenant laws. 

For a couple hosts/owners it's a major revenue loss!

They will also contact you if any repairs exceed $200 (I'm sure the threshold is negotiable), but will otherwise just take care of it (with their team, or your own if you have folks you prefer to use).I don't know what their contract actually states though so I'd want to look at that more closely.  

@James KhailSounds like you've boiled down your options to:a) in state property with tenant-friendly regulation, self-managing in a low-income neighborhood with possibly higher turnoverb) out of state property with less landlord regulation, professionally managed, in a nicer areaIt comes down to personal preference and your time value 

My business partner and I arrived to Moon Palace a couple hours ago!

After a couple of years organizing my personal finances and financial literacy, my goal this year is to finish the year in my own home and have 1 rental property.

I received a similar message through VRBO a couple of weeks ago.

Hi Mani, I have a couple properties in Memphis and more properties in other Midwest markets.
