If you renting it short term you do not have that long term lease to show so you cannot use income from that property.

You need to have enough money, probably in the $100-150k, amount to put the property under contract, and do the feasibility study on the property, Phase 1 Environmental, Property Drawings for roads, water sewer, and utilities, and have a completed budget so you know what your costs are.At that point you can go out and attract investors, I don't thing that developing raw land is necessarily cheaper than buying discounted finished lots. 

And the PM contact info she gave you that was from her rental in 2017, if so I would check with them just in case? 

I looked for months, and looked at SFH, apts, houses on leased land, mobiles homes and everything that was cheap because I had so little money and had just started a new entry level job 9 months earlier. 

I don't have much experience with anything outside of rental properties but i am very willing and open to go into a whole new direction.What I own so far:One Multi Family Building (4 Units)Six Single Family HomesThe Multi Family Building and one of the SFR are owned free and clear (Estimated value of $2.3 Million combined).

@Jordan Schneider it says you have assignment contracts on 2 of them, so don’t they spell out what your right is to access?

There are a few dozen on this platform so you can do a quick search.

Pete/Clearwater area so I know right where you're investing.

There are so many options, and depending on exactly what your looking for, I'm sure I can help you find it!   

I would guess between $600-$1,000 annually would be a good estimate for a rental house based on what I have in my portfolio... so I would decrease the $187/month to about $80-$100 per month.
