People sell hope--thus the lottery and I guess now REI. 

I guess the question I’m left with is, what have you found the profit margins to look like on co-hosted (not owned,) properties?

I’m guessing the property has been written off by Suntrust (original lien holder) and either isn’t worth the cost to complete the foreclosure process or it’s already been written off. 

Then start the painful process of trying to notifying, move/store and auction off the abandoned property.I've thoroughly researched the SB1079 laws and qualify as a prospective owner/occupant since we honestly plan to use the home as our primary residence.I guess my primary question is, is there anything I seem to be missing and need to look into?

@David Pere I'm going to guess you have a good knowledge base according to your "From Military to Millionaire" tagline. 

Everything is negotiable.I guess I don’t really NEED a partner.

I'd venture to guess that the median price for an STR-able property is probably $2M.

@John Vasconcelosi guess all of those risks exist, sure. 

(FYI maybe ya wanna read Global Finance magazine as Luxembourg was rated #1 richest country in the world 2024, give ya 2 guesses how that is as there's no oil, no ocean, land-locked tiny nation middle of Europe.....)....

Even though property taxes are high in Texas, I guess they made the numbers work.
