Question: Did you have to pour any concrete piers or drive metal ones into the ground below your foundation footings for additional support? 

@Ryan OuderkirkI imagine Florida would be AWESOME!

Although if there are unruly tenants in there now, I can imagine that a few things would need to be fixed when the tenant turns over.  

I can't possibly imagine this being a worthwhile endeavor, as it seems way too heavy-handed to me. 

We've also read that dogs like to mark their territory in new surroundings - can't even imagine asking our housekeepers to clean up that kind of thing, don't think we could keep them too long, we do all we can to keep housekeeping happy as we cannot do this without them. 

I was imagining a kind of vacation home when I though of absentee owners' houses.

I'd imagine if you use the business line, you'd have to report the purchase as an asset to the business so any income off the property would have to be reported as business income.Hard Money lenders will also have you providing info on the property and maybe yourself as well.

I can only imagine what they will do when they have the apartment under their control.

Driving for dollars can also work and only costs you some gas, but there isn't one strategy that pours out the deals.

I imagine any politician who actually had skin in the game wouldn't be out there saying that we need to make felons, sex offenders, jerks, slobs, etc. protected classes.
