Owners are supposed to certify to the Board if no sales were generated in any particular month, as well as provide a copy of any Colorado sales tax return or alternatively, a report from AirBnB or VRBO regarding the sales for that month.I find this invasive, crappy, and a whole lot more that shouldn't be said in polite company. 

If you find a bank willing to do a deal like that let me know their contact info.

@Paul Merriwether it's all about finding the right deals.

The house is unlivable, and now I’m dealing with the headache of insurance claims, finding contractors, and ensuring my tenants have a place to stay.

Finding the right property (or even a GP) can be a real grind.

Sorry to hear about your troubles but not uncommon.You will find recommendations in the group.As you can imagine, we keep our trusted contractors close to our chest as we give them volume and need them working for us.All the best 🙏

Turn over is typically higher than a normal rental, so you have to get good at finding and screening tenants/ house mates. 

Find a local lender, you can start with where you have your money and then branch out, and confirm what you will need to qualify as @Nathan Gesner said above.

All it takes is one little hiccup in life and they will stop paying rent, then it may take months for you to wake up and start the eviction, then additional months for you to actually evict, then months to find a new renter.2.

One recommendation is find a good property manager, he will be an important key player
