Those people get excited about creating an awesome guest experience, they love to nerd out about revenue management, photography, staging, and other parts of the business so they get really really good at it, and they have jobs that allow them the time to manage themselves (and this doesn't have to be a lot of time btw).

I have the same question, but this issue is more complex when an investor has multiple investments in different states with federal passive losses carried forward from multiple states.I doubt that states intended to allow non-residents to not pay state income tax by offsetting state sourced income with non-state sourced passive losses.

With your prior experience investing, you should be able to find a lender that will allow you to put 10% down, and they will also cover the repair costs.

Others like the low cost of the mid-west and have the, skills, time and energy to manage a project long distance.What strategy to deploy will depend on your goals and what your skills, lifestyle, and capital allow you to accomplish and the balance of those 3.
