I assume you're talking about investing in condos in beach cities but not necessarily in beachfront properties, who aren't the most profitable investments, given the high price tag that you can't fully pass through through a higher rental income.All these places could give you high returns but I'd avoid Cancun as people go there for the all-inclusive hotels and resorts and so a short-term rental makes less sense there.Most people pay cash since that's the easiest solution and it's often not necessary to use leverage to get a nice return on investment.

You should always try to negotiate a mutual lease termination (cash for keys) with the tenant and only go the eviction route as a last resort.

I get cold calls from resorts I have stayed in the past and I find it annoying.

Purchase price: $190,000 This is a 1 bed/1 bath condo in a resort in a very desirable town in Central Oregon.

Parks throughout the resort, basketball, rock climbing walls, pickleball (which strangely is huge) and so many other things.

Delta has a lot of direct flights to SLC. 10 ski resorts within 1 hour of Park City.

Bad move if you want to be a player in a given area.

If not, as you know, you can simply ask a question here on BP and you will be fed with knowledge and many different opinions and strategies from both small and big time players in the game. 

So would I need to resort to wholesellers to get a better deal on lots?

I still have his book and cassette tapes (I don't have a cassette player anymore).
