@Tip MallickI think there is an international forum but not that many people invest internationally here and probably even less in Thailand anyway.It depends on your objectives (we all have different ones) but didn't you already answer your own question?

--Short answer: It really depends on which state the LLC is formed in.Long answer:Here's one way it could be done and afford you excellent protection, even as a single member.1.

I don't own my own home, so even the home buying process is new to me.

I've included an example below to help illustrate this.So different lenders have different rates (which do vary even for DSCR loans) but these are factors they all consider.See example below:DSCR < 1Principal + Interest = $1,700Taxes = $350, Insurance = $100, Association Dues = $50Total PITIA = $2200Rent = $2000DSCR = Rent/PITIA = 2000/2200 = 0.91Since the DSCR is 0.91, we know the expenses are greater than the income of the property.DSCR >1Principal + Interest = $1,500Taxes = $250, Insurance = $100, Association Dues = $25Total PITIA = $1875 Rent = $2300DSCR = Rent/PITIA = 2300/1875 = 1.23If a purchase, you also generally need reserves / savings to show you have 3-6 month payments of PITIA (principal / interest (mortgage payment), property taxes and insurance and HOA (if applicable).

To even find one deal you need to do marketing and build a buyers list, but what are you buying with?

I guess my question is where do I even start?

Currently trying to isolate a market to settle into and focus on while figuring out why nothing seems like a good deal even though I keep hearing there are deals in every market (i.e., trying to figure out what I'm doing wrong while analyzing properties). 

There are lots opportunities in easy bay township or downtown Condos (where str is allowed.) direct west of TC has lots str experience opportunities (water front/ farm house , wineries), direct east close to Williamsburg has great opportunities even for long term summer rental to the horse show participant (June to Sep).

I was surprised even though the elevation is not that high (4.5k?)

Therefore, even if an applicant acknowledges her credit history and offers a larger deposit, landlords must adhere to the legal limits set by the state.
