I have checked with insurance before taking out a policy on both units (separate lots) and they had no exclusions for it, so I am good there.I guess my biggest dilemma right now is price point and what embellishments to make for what the return might be.We have in the are luxury condos, lakeside private acreages, lodge retreats, cabins, tiny houses (2 story trailers- if you will) ,residential like mine and campsites/tents plus the RV parks.It seems most places offer lakeview or lakeside as the drawing angle.

Smaller banks work off approval from a loan committee, so if they have a "good feeling" about you and your prospects, they may be willing to take a chance on you.

A terrible tenant will cost you a lot more than a vacant rental.I would suggest coming up with a written policy regarding tenant screening.

Ask them for a preliminary title report and for a firm estimate for what they will charge you for an owner's policy.
