If you haven't already, look into insurance relocations. 3/2s and above are the sweet spot if the property itself is really nice and in a good neighborhood.

I’m especially interested in spots with strong short-term rental (STR) demand, where the laws are favorable to investors.I have around $250,000 USD to put down as a deposit, and I plan to finance the rest through a mortgage.

On a smaller building this might be a bit tight, but as the buildings scale up I find that this metric is a good spot to be.

I went through the process, and everything seemed to be in good shape: the inspection came back clear, the appraisal was spot-on, and I was excited to get my first tenant in May.That’s when the problems started.

I am hoping to roll these two into one loan and reduce my monthly payment/ interest rate on the HELOC as I will be having the debt long term.I also currently own a 11 spot RV Park which I own all 11 units and is currently generating $10,375/month in rent.

Otherwise, all of the comments I read when I did spot checks seemed appropriate even if they're not conventional suggestions.

Based on the data I was seeing in Airbnb, I can tell that the property was well located because my views and favorites in the Airbnb were significantly higher than the other properties in the areas, especially after the number of reviews increased.

(This HOA was not FHA approved, but now even single-unit "spot approval" is no longer possible.)

You can definitely integrate Zelle/Venmo into your systems but there's easier ways. 100% agree with this explanation BUT I think there is a sweet spot not mentioned. 

Vu's comment about a preflight checklist is spot on.
