Orlando Short term rentals near Disney/ Universal

[David R.]

Looking to buy larger 6+ bedroom place near Disney for investment mainly with eventual once in a while family use. Nice amenities at Windsor Hills, but older smaller homes; large homes at Sonoma but less amenities. Some places like Reunion Encore have restrictions on renters amenity usage. There are so many gated communities such as Solterra, Solara, Solana, Sonoma, and Sedona (that’s just some of the Ss).

Is anyone else looking for similar homes, and/or anyone have thoughts on the market there in general. Looks like they are still building, and to look on a map, there is still a lot more land to develop.

David -

You have obviously done a lot of digging into short term rental vacation homes here, and I agree with your assessments of each community mentioned. Finding the right vacation home for you will take a little longer than a year ago because so many of the good ones have been snapped up.  I have pro forma statements on homes in what I think are the better communities. Private message me, and I will be happy to send some to you.  I also have excellent contacts with lenders, insurance companies, a property manager and someone to do renovations if needed. 

We just had a big announcement yesterday from Universal Studios here that Orlando is buzzing about.  They announced Epic Universe, which will be their 4th theme park here.  This is another indication that the tourist industry here is going to continue to grow and demand for vacation homes has to increase.
