If I were in your position, I would keep things as simple as possible and focus on building equity to save money for my next property.

I would need to keep buying property to lessen the burden, but that is why I am asking for opinions

Keep you posted 

I like that area to invest, however it is near a flood zone, something to keep in the back of your head, but not a deal breaker.

Sweet I'll definitely keep asking around, Thank you for the advice!

As long as you follow the rules like lawn maintenance, paint the fence a certain color, keep the house a decent color you'll be fine.

I try to keep it simple. 

We’ve also asked them to keep the screen door unlocked so that we can use the key to enter if they are not home.Tenant is active duty military living with his girlfriend.

With 6 roomies, and possibly a lot of turnover, (Mi cocina es la cochina de nadie)Same for the restrooms, livingroom and yard.Maybe some maid service to keep the place(s) as desirable living space.I wouldn't not expect flop house types to be big on cleaning up other roommates messes .

Keep working to find the people with money, tell your story, before long you will have so much private money, you won't be able to use it all.
