@Jaycee Greene yes I am looking at 535K@Kimberly Venable How about a duplex like this: https://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-detail/685-W-1850...?

Keep in mind my comments were given with only knowing the details you provided in a post so I don't want to come across as a know it all. 

Will follow up to get more details on your idea!

Maybe you saw this from the Tico Times already, but it lays out mostly depressing details on getting a mortgage in Costa Rica: http://www.ticotimes.net/realestate/25-mortgage-ti...Please post back here if you find anything!

I’m concerned mine is not detailed enough.  

Create columns for Name, Street Address, City, State, Zip and then contact info: Last Contact, Relationship, Status, Email & Phone.IMPORTANT: do NOT ask people for THEIR business, ask for referrals!

You can print this one on your computer, no need for the “official” printed forms.W-9 asks them to enter their name, address, and tax ID – which can be a SSN, ITIN (for people who are not permanent residents) or EIN (business tax ID).

I detail here how my first flip essentially bankrupted me which resulted in this house losing money as well.It’s easy to blame others for all that went wrong.
