Your suggestion if I understand correctly after googling the terms, is too look into county owned properties or lots?

I have not received favorable terms from the local bank I worked with on the original loans, and they are unwilling to work with the RV Park whatsoever.This is in Clay County, Alabama.

I am currently looking at the Daytona Beach area for buy-and-hold SFH and small multifamily properties. 

Other than perhaps property taxes, turnover is generally the biggest single operating expense you will endure as a buy-and-hold real estate investor.

My client i funded and partnered with then went on to tell me its Clay and Clay in that area is in big demand to be used to line ponds etc as the basic soil in the area is very sandy and wont hold water..

For background context: I'm interested in a long-term rental with the unit to offset my mortgage while I live in one of the units.

the rental then holds the mortgage - is that how it works?

I've accumulated a bit of capital and I'm trying to figure out the best way to appreciate on it; and real estate always struck me as a good option—a true classic.I'm from Europe, but I don't really feel location tied in terms of investments—I wonder actually, do many of you do business internationally?

Who can I contact for best rates and terms for non-primary home, NEW build for STR?
