For example the BRRRR strategy worked with many properties 10 years ago when the average mortgage was cheaper than the average rent.

But to answer your question, House canary is good for rent rates, zillow is a good tool for property data and for seeing what is for rent for how much, sales comps etc. 

@Eli Fazzo, Almost every location is going to have some surprises that you just have to factor in when looking at investing in real estate. 

I know nothing about the properties, where they're located, or what carriers have already been approached.There's not really a such thing as supplemental coverage for this situation.I hope you find what you're looking for.

Given the property is located in the Poconos and the property is vacant more regularly as an STR there are proactive measures  you should  be taking such as making sure there are heating sources so that the plumbing does not freeze and ensuring there are no blocks in the plumbing lines with routine checks.

I would probably waive the few days of February rent.

Quote from @Steve Tokita: I am an out-of-state investor living 1500 miles away from three properties that I am currently renovating to rent or to flip. 

I am looking into investing in Findlay Ohio and would like to find an agent to answer some questions about the location, market, and suggestions on places.

(But not for a “I’m going to live in it 50 weeks out of the year and rent it out two weeks”, IMHO, if that was your idea.  

I bought 2 new construction in Athens last summer and rented them right away... so far so good.
