@Neil Patel Welcome to Bigger Pockets!! 

Regardless of which state you choose, be sure to maximize your liability on your renters policy and get an umbrella - this will protect you more than any LLC will. 

Condos are cheaper than houses, and to my mind, a vacationer wouldn't care much about staying in a bigger place for their short stay, and would be more concerned with a good location and a nice view.Thoughts?

Martin the property management argument isn't really an argument if you look at the bigger picture that most investors don't want to manage their properties anyways because they are spending most of the time on their main job.

@Melanie P.I need to unpack & clear some things up from your last post for Bigger Pockets viewers.

With kids and self-employment you need bigger reserves than others. 

It sounds like there’s a bigger story here.

Though USLI, one of the biggest umbrella policy providers, dropped my max coverage to $1M because I had pools.

Then if I wanted to sell a property, then I just sell it and let the new owners revamp and go their own way with a new listing.If being on Bigger Pockets has taught me anything, each owner is unique and will want to take what they buy and put their own spin on it.
