Those concerns are totally valid.

However, a lot of concerns can be mitigated with looking at their past rental behavior in a lot of different settings.

It could certainly be a concern - but depends on a lot of factors - are you looking multi or SFR? 

Condos are cheaper than houses, and to my mind, a vacationer wouldn't care much about staying in a bigger place for their short stay, and would be more concerned with a good location and a nice view.Thoughts?

I think governments have a role to play in trying to tackle affordable housing concerns, but even I think the reclassification bill will crush the little guy, or at a minimum needs revising.

Hope you get a mobile home expert to help you out. 

Yup half of these ideas are OLD NEWS  I never equate Texas and low tax's LOL also my concern with build to rent subdivisions is not the rent or the first 3 to 5 years but the exit in 7 to 10 years which is average hold time for investors.. 

While I use it primarily for noise concerns (it alerts me for sustained +80 decibels), it's also handy for cigarette smoke and tracking temperatures (in addition to our Ecobee thermostat)- sensors on all exterior doors and possibly windows (which you might have via smart locks for the doors)- exterior camsA recent guest for reasons only known to them set the thermostat to cool and 60F in the winter (where it's currently a balmy 11F). 

The best banks that I have found based on your main concerns are smaller, regional, community sized banks.

The problem (as you have cited) is trying to understand what you need (you don't know what you don't know), where to get it, qualifying its source(s), and the validity and usefulness of all that.Pardon me if I've gone into this too much, but I meet many people with the same concerns that you are voicing and this is offered, as much as possible in direct response to your post.Please feel free to contact me if you have any comments or questions.
