Depending on the way their company operates, you filing your property as an investment on your taxes may be considered an issue for them depending on how stringent they are.

Also I have not worked out the financing yet. if I just use my cash then the Cash on Cash drops to 8 or 9% and that would be below my Cash on Cash target.Generally speaking and of course just numbers I picked out of the air for reference when running numbers in my head, I am looking for Cash on Cash greater than 15%, high probability of long term occupancy, and no expected major Capex for 2.5 years after purchase and purchase time repairs which I would add into the cash on cash evaluation before pulling the trigger.So there are some more details to be worked out in my head but being it is my first one and only learning what I could from youtube videos I thought I would get some feedback.With all that said, in my head it seems like it could be a good start.Thanks again Jaycee and Gavin for your feedback.

--Financing:I would like to do 20% down, or more if needed, but I would like to avoid 100% cash offers as it would likely be the majority of my liquid assets.Question: How does financing differ from the mainland?

I know it’s more difficult to sell this so I’m looking for a company or group of Investors that would be willing to buy as is.

I'd suggest staying away from the typical TK companies. 

Working on finding a local agent and management company.

Follow all safety requirements your Insurance Company plus city and county require.This usually includes childproof access and alarms.

Definitely want to talk/meet with a few different ones if possible and try to get to know them and their companies if possible on the front end so you don't have to fly in after the fact. 

The days of using Kitchen and Bath companies for the cabinets and countertops in your flips are over.
