I have written an article here on BP that you might find a useful read about Three Key Routes for Passive Real Estate InvestingIn any case all best in your REI travels, whichever paths you take.

Here is an excerpt from an article from another BP member regarding delayed financing:If you buy a property with cash (or with a HELOC) you can receive a cash out loan on Day 1.There is not a 6 month waiting period with receiving a cash out loan if you purchased a home with cash or with a HELOCBUT you will be limited to the amount of….Your purchase price + closing costs (costs when you purchased the home)OR75% of the “After Repair Value”…WHICHEVER IS THE LOWER AMOUNT (super important)These rules are important to understand so here are two examples:Example 1: If you purchased a home with $50k of cash, and put $30k of renovations into the loan, and the home was worth $100k. 75% is $75k and $50k is your purchase price.

The title company can do the deed of trust or land contract  whichever you prefer costs are passed on the the value of the property and the escrows companies fees I would think a minimum of $500-600 call around and check prices You can ask the buyer to pay the escrow fees 

Whichever presents itself to me first is the route I will take on my first deal.

Good luck whichever way you end up going.

You can manage it from Aruba if you have a cell phone. 

Setting up a home office with a computer, cell phone, etc isn't much.

If not, whichever unit owner has a claim on the area would be responsible.
