And you'd have to maintain a primary residence of some sort somewhere. 

I am hoping to find distressed properties that I can buy with all cash for BRRRR and am also open to any sort of partnership.

I almost wonder if this question is a plant of some sort just to gauge the types of responses it would generate, so I'll take the bait in the even that this is a bot or troll (full disclosure, my career is not in any way related to the success or failure of the RE market).

These little things are the things that make guests feel connected to you.The rest will sort itself out!

.- Im thinking of not charging security deposit because of all the strict MA laws and just using the last months rent as a sort of security deposit, thoughts?

If not in the city, and not in the ETJ, then it's a lot easier, provided you can get water (probably need to drill water wells so thats a separate ground water district) and sanitation (some sort of onsite sewage treatment).

Look for neighborhoods where there are lots of people with bad hats and bad facial hair.

Seems managing a "property management" team (without taking on properties owned by others) would keep things consistent and allow for minor tweaks without jumping ship from one "complete" PM to another....sort of handling all aspects "in house" but not solo.

In my state (NY) you have to accept these sorts of requests unless you can find a valid reason not to.

If you have one close to you, they usually sell all sorts ofstuff pretty cheaply.
