But like @Lucas Carl said, life might be way easier if you make your money here and enjoy a stress-free vacay in a prime destination.

On your last quote, I often tell people there are properties that they could get for free that they would lose money on. 

It had to be your primary first to get 100% tax free up to $250k.

I'm interested in talking VT real estate or meetups, feel free to DM me.

I am also reading BRRRR to further my knowledge.

If you'd like to ask us a few questions as we manage properties in the Grand Rapids area, feel free to ask all the "how" questions.

We lived in it for a year, remodeled both units and put in place a long-term tenant on one unit and a mid-term tenant on the other.Here's a little more details about this deal:*   Purchase price: $163k*   Financed price: $132k @ 7.625% APR*   After repair (estimated value): $225k*   Gross rents: $2150 ($750 one year lease & $1400 six month lease)*  Annual taxes and insurance: $7000*  Approx credit score: 650 (I used interest free credit card to pay for remodeling this property and maxing it out caused my score drop almost 50 pts!) 

That has a 7% tax-free return.

But feel free to use these points as a benchmark.

I have the bright investor free trial.
