.#2 leasing it for people who are willing to do yearly lease (1.5 or 2 times regular rent) from you and use it for AirBnB rentals.

Here are some questions:I didn't finance the purchases so if I go to the bank, would I be asking for a regular mortgage for them?

The numbers above seem to make you a competitive buyer in the current FL 2018 market so I will actually buy something at that price with a 12% interest hard money loan, get it rented, eat the negative cash flow for during the seasoning period, and ultimately refi through a regular bank down to 5%.I will list the property addressI will list the bank used for refiI will put up my deal analysisMy property management search infoMy experience as a hard money borrower (Disclosure, I am a partner in the lender I will be using, but for this project, I will pay full freight as if I was a beginning borrower)I will put up all my expenses on the projectWhy should you pay attention to this thread?

The private companies that specialize are really nice to use they have great features and more updated info than the title companies sometimes.   

You update the notice weekly as long as they are paying with the understanding they will be on the street when they stop paying or by end of April at the latest.

Any updates on the swing set?

If the owners can't afford upkeep, they may have major roof, floor, plumbing, electric issues which at today's cost of materials to fix and update will cost so much more than the unit is actually worth.

Post an update next week and let us know how it goes!

Thank you for the update. 

Even if it did, it would happen 100x less than in your regular 12 month lease situation.Unfortunately, I've experienced both of those things in my traditional rentals.
