Not one lease in the entire country says a tenant can’t take the appliances when they leave, even long term leases.

I own an HOA management company in Hoboken and it's led me down this thinking-path as well.

What I don't understand is Georgia is a non-judicial foreclosure state with the fastest and cheapest process in the country, and with no redemption rights to boot. 

Neither path was completely hands-off, but the returns turned out higher than we initially expected (despite all the lumps and bumps along the way).As for Lakeland, I think @Andrew Haley's observations about mobile homes are spot on.

Since you are out of the country and seem inexperienced, when buying condos you also have to assess the viability and strength of the HOA, pending litigation and/or assessments, and parking per unit.

Many successful investors follow a similar path to grow their wealth over time.

But I'm curious do properties in other countries count?

I have also sold properties subject to; but with safeguards in place so we had a path of problems occurred. 

Would like to do more ponds on our Country Subdivision projects here in Iowa, but the Corp of Engineers governs these, and this same pond would have cost $80,000 to $120,000 for the "Right to build"; not to actually build here. 

Personally in this year alone I've helped clients get through divorce, leave their job to care for an elder parent, and leave the country for a mission trip with a cut in pay.
