it is amazing that investor will do all this deep dive into a tenant that is going to pay 1000 a month. 

Financially it's amazing, but there are a few things to keep a look out for.1. 

I did some digging and am comfortable with the water issue, but I find it amazing what banks/HUD will do.My last HUD house they flooded it two days before my closing.

Hi Josh, that is amazing! 

The 3rd thing that has reshaped my entire opinion of the tax advantages of real estate, is seeing my 88 grandfather holding five quite valuable illiquid properties, long story short it’s a mess, it’s causing family drama, he is in zero shape physically or mentally to manage them, the all have cap-ex needs, again these were amazing buy’s literally multiple properties he bought for under 50k that are now worth over a million but there is probably a time and a place for owning real estate, so I don’t really have a need to own more than maybe a few properties into retirement.

its quite amazing the amount of these deals that are going south this year..

We love the fact that there is a direct flight to Cancun from Phoenix (then about a 1:30 drive to Tulum) and the jungle setting up against the beach is amazing.

I am seeing some AMAZING deals in Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge as well as the Blue ridge are of N Ga that are HUGE equity gains because prices are lower in this buyers market and also cash flowing much better than last year.

It sounds like you will be a successful owner which is amazing!
