Properties in the Southeast of Mexico often offer ROI upwards of 10%-15% annually, especially in short-term rentals.Key Benefits:Tourism Growth: Mexico welcomed over 40 million international visitors in the first 11 months of 2024, surpassing 2023 figures. 

Being out of state, I would suggest vetting your "team", meaning find an investor realtor, lender/s (hard $ / long term), property manager, contractors, etc.

would get estimates and see how long to recover the money and your long term plan for the property

Partnering: If you're initially short on funds or experience, consider partnering with someone who has more experience or capital.

Working with the city to find a solution.There is a similar situation near me where an investor bought a short term rental house, rehabbed it, ran it for a while, and then got in trouble with the town after a neighbor complained and the town said short term rentals weren't allowed in the community. 

Hello @Timothy Hilario,I think there are benefits to both strategies.If you move out of your apartment and rent it as a mid-term rental, you could see decent cashflow without pulling equity out of the unit.

Sounds like you and your future husband have a solid success plan in place. 

I'm not a fan of selling a property that is performing in order to solve a short term problem.

I tend to shy away from homes over ~20 years old to buy and hold for long term renting.
