I've been looking at various properties throughout CR and would love to make a simple partnership with another party in this endeavor, whether local or expatriate. Although I love the idea of a rural setting, I've also been looking at small units in more urban areas. Among other ideas, I've looked at smaller duplexes and such. I imagine a situation like this could be conducive to a residual stream of income, whether through airbnb or longer term arrangements. I have an extensive background property management and maintenance in the US, as well as being a certified home inspector. The benefit would be that each partner could have access to one of the units at various times of the year. Not prepared for any huge investment, but perhaps something under $100K could work. If interested in any further discussion, let me know!
