@Chris B. thank you for your honest opinion we know it is near to immposible... if it was easy than everybody would do it :)

It’s easy to say “just screen better,” but I imagine truly tightening up criteria without killing occupancy can be an art.Since you’ve seen this play out firsthand, I’d love to hear more—what specific strategies have you used to filter out the bad tenants from the good ones?

Building a cabin in a tourist destination that does not have easy access to gas or electric.So I will need to run electric line anyway and considering installing underground propane tank, is it worth it?

I want to hear some stories on how other people got started and how easy/difficult it was.

But even if you want to do large deals, you need comparable reps.Technology has made it easy to "analyze" deals.

Foremost, Proper are 2 big ones.Don't skimp and get the place insured properly.

And how do I roll this into a cheaper mortgage (my dti would be too bad for another conventional).Maybe a lender would be able to consider the electric "working" with the proper inspection?

Make sure that you're properly vetting your team members especially your agent that you work with - your investor agent should be looking out for your best interest and should be able to explain why something is a good/bad deal.
