@Michael SkvorakHi Michael,Have you looked into any nationwide portfolio lenders?

Hi Bob,I would just like to reiterate that in many cases you can buy a property that looks good on paper but has such large outstanding repairs that the amount of time it would take to recoup the expense that it doesn't make sense. 

If there are a lot of people like me, next year will be an outstanding year as I plan on having many trips/adventures.

It’s hot right now but a nationwide market change downward for whatever reason can easily cause some losses so be careful and know your numbers.

Historically it has been outstanding for long term holds.There is a poor relationship between initial cash flow and long term cash flow. 

I have no experience investing in Mexico so I am no help there.If your numbers are accurate, your rate of return is very good with outstanding cash flow.

I've been with them for over a year now and they have some outstanding training.

Where are you looking (local, state, nationwide) in your quest?

The problem with having one small piece of land is that most utility scale solar requires 3 things:- Proximity to transmission infrastructure (high voltage lines + substation)- Appropriate to develop (relatively level, not environmentally sensitive, suitable solar potential, reasonable regulatory burden:land cost ratio)- Large contiguous area (2,500+ acres); typically for wind or solar a company will have to lease from several landownersBackground for me is land acquisition, permitting, and environmental consulting for large utility scale solar projects nationwide.

However, as a general rule of thumb, you will need to have enough rental income to cover your living expenses and also any outstanding loans or mortgages on the property, such as property management, repairs, and maintenance.To calculate the amount of rental income you need to net per month to quit your job, you'll need to start by figuring out your living expenses.
