Ideally traveling before the end of the rehab ensures that they take acre of details that sometime the camera does not capture.

If it is multifamily I am looking to make sure that the income from the other units can cover my expenses and ideally provide some cash flow.

Quote from @Rolando DeLeon: Different strokes for different folks.If the current resident maintains the home well, I show it occupied.

Normally if you follow a pure spreadsheet model you will get a house with a funky layout that isn't easy to change in a area where tenants aren't ideal.

It was not an ideal fit.

Ideally, I would love to invest in a deal where I could eventually rent on AirBnB and be a place where I could also occasionally use as a get-a-way.

We’re also open to doing it with a condo, but ideally a 2-4 unit.I’ve seen buildings that need some work (mostly modernizing or repairs like a new A/C) that I have stayed away from because we are trying to limit the amount of cash we’re putting down. 

An ideal situation would be a property that I could either house hack or at do short term rentals out of when I'm not in town.

Ideally, just 1 trip to get going unless you like going there.  

I want to have multiple rental properties at some point, so this would be my first and it is ideal by not having a mortgage.
