I believe the older vacation homes that have not been brought up to date will really struggle with occupancy and / or rates. 

I love this site and all the professionals that give away free advice with no strings attached.

I use DealMachine, and I'm happy with it (I read the instructions you provide at the site, so I actually wasn't surprised by anything).

Found this property through our local online foreclosure auction site.

Hi Melissa - Yes, I saw these and I’m leaning towards https://learntitlesearching.comthe content creator is on YouTube there’s  ‘about’ page contact info, phone, email etc.The other class might be fine~ but site is missing ‘about’ info, no contact no name, no phone no number no email- not clear who they are.ALTA is specialized/ costly (I’m requesting  some  cost covered by a job training program) so far I took a few quick low cost basic classes here: Understanding title reports , Basics of Title reports and escrow from online edhttps://www.onlineed.com/catalog?

A good place to get an idea of what they look like is to go to one of the crowdfunding sites.

I also know a few property managers I can recommend who are responsive and experienced with investors.Let me know when you finalize your travel dates—I’d love to meet up while you’re in town and show you a few options!

@Weronika Jedrak  I don't reach out to unmatched leads unless it is for dates and we are pretty close, others always do.

Just like the BRRR that is talked about on this site.. shoot we were doing those 30 years ago.. we just called it cash out refi.. so you take someone who just brands it and folks think is some great idea that was just created..  

No, DIY is not the same as a virtual site visit or a study done by engineers @Dana YobstAs @V.G Jason said, you could very likely cost yourself more in time and money.
