lots of options depending on your goals. i focus primarily in knoxville with long term holds and a few flips. my long term holds are focused in 37921 and 37912 zip codes and focus on long term tenants and student rentals. oak ridge has a great upside for long term renting as well as mid term with the lab and all the contract labor that goes in and out of there. happy to pass out some references if needed. 

I'm continuing to educate myself in investing to open up more options in my career.

I'd love to discuss some options with you and see how I can support you and your business.

I could look at nearby properties and their tax value on the County website Any advice on which of these 3 options is more likely to succeed? 

That’s an interesting area for sure, I will be back in the summer to explore a bit more and I will give you a buzz.

I live in Montana and geographically, it seems like one of the only options for investing that is within one flight away from Montana.

We live in San Diego and I have realized that buying here in this market will definitely not cash flow so considering Midwest as well as other options.

They also give you the option to buy the lien for subsequent years so that you stay in first priority (the whole process takes 3 years before the property is forfieted).

I really like the idea of pulling my capital back out and recycling it, which is why I like this option a ton. 

But with mixed use your loan options are mostly limited to conventional.
