There is a lot more space that can be converted to either commercial/residential or storage.

That said, they told me that the condition to have it "available" is in there to prevent long term renters, even 6 months or seasonal long term.

The problem that I am having is that some teams are not willing to do a job verification because I did not return the following season with them. 

Ask them their interest rates, points, seasoning periods, required documents needed, and closing time.2.

Some lenders will look for 6 months of seasoning, others will not.

I even thought about a commercial property, maybe even a plot of land for storage just to generate some limited attention properties because I work 12 hour days 5 days a week.

I will also add a small storage shed for each unit.

We are hoping for any sage wisdom or advice all you seasoned investors might have for young bucks like us.

They are the key - since you are overseas you may want to find one who can handle a lot of the tasks like collateral storage as wellOther team members are an attorney, preservation company, reo asset company in case it ever went delinquent.I run my business from my home and have ran it from overseas when on vacationsOnly obstacle really is the time zones

@Crane Xu, some lenders have a seasoning period, where you need to own a property 6 or 12 months to refi.
