This drove them even more nuts as they feel their territory is being invaded.

Not sure what the laws will be for investing in Puerto Rico as it's an unincorporated US territory.

Rehab and all will take me into uncharted territory.

I have resources that will lend in Puerto Rico and the US Territories but they usually lend on bigger commercial deals. 

No one can be a purely passive investor in the deal as that gets into syndication territory.

The good thing about Opportunity Zones is that they are located across all 50 states and all US territories.

But now that I've been on the stage for so long and the satisfaction from setting out on a difficult journey I saw results in ways I never could have imagined, I now have set my sights on this new territory. 

I have rental income from a long-term unit, but short-term rentals are new territory for me.Thanks to everyone for your feedback.

Gang territories often make a difference.

I'm thinking turn key would eliminate/delay some of the capex and maintenance and ultimately make the vacancies easier to fill but then I'm getting into more expensive territory.
