Touching on some of the above my lender did a loan for a client who did not have a primary (lives in rented NYC apartment and purchased home in FL), and mileage is not a concern but you have to prove a reason i.e. you live in a city and the visit the beach often, you work often in subject area, mountains, etc.

This doesn't mean that you shouldn't be ambitious with your objectives, as long as you're realistic.I have years of experience with short-term rentals in Mexico but I'm not sure how useful that can be to you since I invest in beach markets where there is mass tourism and visitors rent for one or multiple weeks so it's fairly different.
