This may work in certain climates or seasonally, but I've ran into issues with it during "in-between" seasons where both cooling and heating was needed, so I ultimately just turned it off.

Like others have mentioned, you will pay structurally more for a home warranty than self-insuring for the cost of repairs.This may be worth it if the value proposition was that you could be hands-off whenever a covered item breaks.In reality, it adds significant overhead because there is the claims process and you give up control of the repair timeline and quality as you have discovered.

never heard of one running off propane, unlike natural gas or electric.

I see a lot of unnecessary risk in investing in another country.If you still want to do it, I would start off with something on the lower end that is still nice to see how it goes for a couple of years before making a major investment out of country.I would thoroughly research all expenses such as taxes insurance, permits etc.

*wipes sweat off brow (THANKFUL). 

Many are finding Airbnb to be a better option for long-term stays, and they can negotiate a better price then what hosts get off Furnished Finders. 

I ended up leaving the partnership due to venturing off to focus on my startup but no bad blood.Recently I’ve been contacted by the father of one of the partners and he’s having some health issues but in the midst of it all the property is having some foundation issues.

Any and all help is appreciated.Thank you.First off, congrats on making it half way through your first flip!
