I'm interested in buying a SFH home in CO springs as a long term rental.

Most recently, I worked with a client out here in Colorado that let their parade of homes house (from 25 years ago) in a gated community literally fall to pieces; mold between window panes, water infiltrating the kitchen due to lack of roof repair, patio pavers crumbling apart, downspout misplacements that caused water infiltration into the living room....just a mess. 

I don't have personal experience with this kind of land trust but since you're in CO I have a personal recommendation of a real estate attorney here in CO who has helped me with seller finance deals and is very responsive and has been great to work with in general - Jeromy Geraghty - https://www.geraghtylawoffice.com/

I am planning on visiting the P&Z department in Douglas Co. to get a walkthrough of how to obtain a building permit this week. 

A friend of mine is co-owner in a drug rehab clinic that operates in Southern California.  

I am aiming to have a portfolio of 2-3 long-term rentals within the Colorado market by 2026.
