Naturally, the lowest mortgage rate was my goal, so i started applying for mortgages. 

@Steven WestlakeThis seems like a management intensive business without much standard operating procedures already out there.

There are a few important things to consider when investing from Canada in the US market, one of which is the loan procedure.1.

Anything can happen: the market can shift, we can go into another extended lockout period, the property can be destroyed by a natural disaster or by vandalism, the list of contingencies is endless.

So the asynchronous nature of tenant requests, coupled with trying to get them handed out to the right handyman, plumber, etc, are driving me insane.Is this something that can be outsourced without going to a full 3rd party property management arrangement?

A fire pit, BBQ grill, or outdoor dining area can also be great selling points.Themed Decor: Consider a lake or nature-themed decor to enhance the experience.

@Ruben VanDusenYour wasting peoples time and good natured sense to help others.  

@Jay Hinrichs: Not meaning to be disagreeable, that's not my nature, but it's in the same thread where you were promoting what you do.

Furthermore, maintaining rigorous property management practices, keeping thorough records, and implementing robust tenant screening procedures can also mitigate risks.

(Also, the developer is reasonably experienced + wealthy and has personally guaranteed some of the existing development projects - but wants to move away from that)I'm also planning to get some equity in the JV / the broader development company (much less equity than if I were to be a pure equity investor of course). because I do think this could scale to 300-400 homes / yearOf note: These homes are modular in nature - so are faster to build and margins are projected to be attractive.My questions for you all is:Have any of you lent to development assets with cross-collateral from cashflowing properties like this?
