I suspect the AirBnB concept would do well in the property but am not interested in doing AirBnB myself at this time.

However, you may run into a couple that are less inclined due to being cranky or just not caring.

A" Tenant = Professionals with good credit, pays on time and takes care of the place.

Many landlords think putting up with bad tenants is preferred to the inconvenience and cost of a turn over but this is usually a issue of a landlord simply not taking care of business and using the cost of turn over as a weak  excuse to avoid work. 

I am researching the MF market in Huntsville, AL and meeting with my broker to view some properties in both Huntsville and Decatur, but would love to meet up with any locals who care to discuss your awesome area. 

I'm a health care independent contractor, with an open ended contract in San Joaquin county, CA.

And my current home situation need my time with taking care of family so currently I m not working at all.What is the best account I must open to invest in Real estate. 

no problem its not real complicated you just don't know what you don't know until you experience it.you want your experience or knowledge to equal or exceed your buyer so you can best position yourself. for not in the business land owners selling to developers.for me the short to do list is1. first and foremost talk with your CPA and make sure they understand what your doing.. don't want to box yourself into a tax situation you don't care for.2. tight contract.. remember builder/developers by and large are sophisticated buyers.. so need to level the playing field.. this is not some wholesaler trying to snake a property.3. once figure out have a good RE attorney draft the contract don't use standard board of realtor or MLS forms.. it should be a custom contract in my mind..

But you need to be careful - some of the really good deals were severely flooded in the hurricanes and many require hefty flood insurance.
