Hi Hannah, I hate to be a party pooper but you won't get any construction loan or any other type of loan in Mexico to finance the construction of a house there.If you don't have cash, your only options would be to borrow in the US.

Neither remote or 3rd party management will work...it will take local, hands on, full time management. 

As they approached the island the brute jumped out of the boat and drew his sword, ready to fight.

Hey Dayton, I'm 20 and kind of in the same boat as you.

Less down almost always = higher interest rate.Second part is raising the equity from investors.

"Upon termination of this lease, tenant shall continue renting on a monthly basis until either party serves the other with a 30-day Notice in writing."

None of my clients do the "co-GP", its a very thin facade...light on substance usually will land both parties under federal trouble...

The way more challenging part is #1 finding the deal of course, #2 finding great contractors that would take on this type of project with payments to them working through installments, #3 finding great terms on your refi.My advice would be to look aggressively for #2 and #3, so if you do come across the golden ticket of #1, you are ready to pounce. 

The owner shall also post a notice of intent to sell at all public entrances to the property (that form will also be provided by DOH).If the owner receives an offer from a third-party, the owner shall provide a written notice to the DOH, tenant association or to each tenant in the rental property.

I recently settled a multi year law suit that mostly went my way (not as much as I had hoped as the other party was scum).
