We focused on where we went wrong with the first couple of homes we purchased.

@Kyle Knudsen, There's a couple reasons why this wont work unfortunately.1.

It’ll save a couple thousand dollars. 

So get a couple of hundred there (after HOA & note). 

And this low demand could be a couple of factors, either a rural location with low population density or the area incomes are not high enough in order to prevent a rent burdened scenario. 

Hell, even Motel 6 has a couple of junk pictures screwed to the wall.

My husband and I purchased our first Costa Rica property last year and were advised by our agent that in almost 6 years of working in that market he had only ever seen 1 American Couple successfully obtain a mortgage in Costa Rica and it was from Scotia Bank. 

I started out with the other guys, getting a couple LLC's done but became disappointed with them because of response time, and conflicting information.

I also just requested to join a couple fb groups realted to STRs in DFW.
