I agree with @Deborah McDonough - not only is a 20k estimate in rehab costs likely too low, but I bet you will spend north of 35k to rehab this house nicely unless you do the majority of the work yourself, and if the foundation/crawl space is actually in good shape. 

I think we are all hedging out bets one way or another right now. 

I am not aware of an expat group- though I'll bet there's at least a FB group that would do the trick. 

.$2200 (rent) * 0.5 (50% rule) = $1100 expensesYou did not indicate your LTV so I will use 90% LTV in this calculation   Higher LTV will make the cash flow worse but the ROI likely better and vice versus for lower LTV  $2200 (rent)  - $1100 (expenses) - $1060 (debt payment at 90% LTV) = $49/month cash flow.  

Im betting it WILL pass,soon. 

I've held commercial assets in LLCs for years, but not residential and certainly not my primary res.I'll let tax pros speak to whether you'll be able to claim the sect 121 capital gains exclusion in an LLC or not, but I bet it gets messy.

Be as specific as possible.If you actually get management for this it will probably be 10-12% or more.I bet you can do better than 4%.Lawn care?

I may not have made $20,000 on this one, but I’m willing to bet that I get a lot of business over the next several years from this man’s friends and family.       

A lot of new builds as it seems easier and cost effective versus retro fitting.

I was in voice contact with both and I am betting they will rebook when things blow over.
