@Eli Edwards Hey Eli, I have head of people doing this before.

Agreed with everyone here - You're headed in a good direction here.

Doesn't ring a bell right off the top of the head.

I will definitely reach out to you and when my family and I head up there to scout the area before we move.

That being said, if you're 23 and you don't own a home, I really do recommend starting with a house hack as you don't need the 25% down capital to get started and you kill 2 birds with one stone by getting a rental and having a roof over your head. 

Quote from @Jessie Dillon: one thing that you can do is have the seller transfer the deed to a living trust that they're the sole beneficiary of, and call the bank to give them a heads up that they're doing it for estate planning purposes. then, a month or more later, buy the property sub-to, and change the beneficiary of the trust. the bank can not see who owns a trust, and if they ever come back and question it, you can just swap the beneficiaries again, show the bank that the seller is still the owner, then swap it back again when they buzz off. this is one of many reasons it's so important to keep a good relationships with the seller if you're buying this way. you have to work together on some stuff.In summary: fraud. 

The challenge with S8 in this scenario is you always have a piano over your head and all a tenant has to do is call the code office to create an issue for you. 

My head is spinning on how to make this run as smoothly and efficiently to help maximize gains and bare minimum, break even after expenses.

Safeguard is trying to clean up the mess but it seems they are in over their heads. 

Sure they paid me both times, but that's exactly what a ponzi would do.Thanks I would be mortified if any of my investors even had a thought in the back of their head that I was running a Ponzi scheme.
