I mostly operate in VA and NC holding long term rentals.

String lights, fire pit, grill and some chairs go a long way and look great when lit up in night-time photos. 

If you want to connect with my agent there, she may have some resources for you for different money.Yes it sure is a hot market,  I have confidence I can get a nice out value and yes I do have some good tradespeople on call, but brand new to navigating lenders (do they need to be local?)

Good day everyone,I am very interested in buying land to build a cabin(or a few for vactional renting ) as the summer getaway, must be closer to nature and quite close/to a good small town.

Does anyone have any other suggestions for a good management software?

I am in process of moving some of our long term rentals to Mid-Term (30-180 day) rentals,  We currently use Buildium to manage our long term rentals and it working decently. 

This is good spot.

Why do you think purchase contracts are so long and have such small print?

not sure I know exactly what those mean yet except to say I'm looking for more long term equity to have better tenants/houses than better short term cash flow with lower tier properties.  

Of course, with all things, the answers to all these matters will depend on the circumstances.California tends to have more laws on the books and requirements and restrictions that it can be a good idea to form a CA LLC for out of state property so that you as a CA resident are covered, and to try to have your contracts fall under the purview of CA courts.
