Condo investing in Tampa bay
I have been researching and running numbers on SFH in the Clearwater St pete area. I have noticed that the home values in the areas I am looking to invest (depending on school ratings) in are still in the 150 ranges.
However...
i have come across some significantly low condos. Has anyone have experience rehabbing condos in the clearwater area? The price range brings a lower risk and may be a good starting point in a first rehab. If so, pros? cons?

@Mark Higgins I don't like condos. I don't trust the association not to raise fees, to spend my money responsibly from the fees, to have property insurance, etc. I've heard of people doing well with condos, they just aren't for me. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.
