I was a manager in corporate America for years and wanted something better.

I've done a ton of research but I am still unsure about investing in a rental property that far south from Jacksonville's main attractions and large corporations to include both Naval bases.

I was thinking I could find something something similiar to Community Investment Corporation (CIC).  

Not a lot of small multifamily and the apartment complex market is expensive and very corporate.

Its called Corporate Housing - even though this might be on a smaller scale, it is a great business model.  

At 24, only a year and a half out of college, I've discovered that the corporate 9-5 (or 7-6 in my case, Enterprise) job is not the direction I want to head in life.

They seem a little higher than what I've seen from the resources I'm using for analysis, would certainly be happy if mine were inaccurate.I don't know about appreciation, but I wouldn't expect demand for rentals in the property to go down soon with the amount of corporate activity in the tech in the Parmer area.

The borrower obtains theloan based on good credit or on some type of collateral (stocks, bonds, personal property)other than the real property.BONDS OR STOCKSLarge, well-rated corporations can sell stocks or general obligation bonds in order topurchase real property without using a mortgage.LONG-TERM LEASEThis is a good approach if the property is usable as is.

Make sure you are getting a corporate and personal guarantee on the lease.

Many of your corporate title shops do not have attorneys in the closing office and are thrown for a loop when a deal is not a cookie cutter residential transaction involving an agent for the buyer and an agent for the seller with a big bank funding the transaction.
