Some crusty campers crawling out of their tents to see wedding guests 50 feet away may not be ideal, but if they were in separate areas entirely it could work well. 

If you're purchasing a house to flip vs. rent, then the ideal property might look completely different.

But as far as for payment, yeah make it easy for peeps to pay you is always ideal I think. 

I am also looking to buy a few duplexes or triplexes for my own portfolio, so it would be ideal to start sending out letters to home owners in my area to see if I can find any off market.

@Sandra Ho,I'm a little late to your thread, but you pose a good question—neither of these situations are ideal.

Likely more than most brrrr, but with an ideal brrrr I can make infinite return.  

My ideal property is a detached single-family distressed, 3/1 or 3/2 home in an A or B neighborhood with good schools, ideally in the $200K-$300K range.

Each property ideally has its own business bank account, as well as your master LLC.Question, is the master LLC acting as the property manager for the other properties?

Also, my insurance company said it would be the same rate regardless which option I go with.or do I stick with the cheapest option upfront like a shingle roofObviously the upfront cost/future cash flow will be hurt the most by the standing seam steal roof (although it could assist in resale value)Does anyone have experience on roofing or an opinion which is most ideal for this scenario?

Ideally you are exceeding the AirDNA numbers but it can be a good gut check on average rates/occupancy for that specific neighborhood, etc
