Short term rental in Tampa
I lived in Tampa for two years, but I now live in California. I want to invest in an Airbnb in Tampa. I know it’s a growing market, especially for the state of Florida. This would be my first investment property. I wouldn’t live in Florida. Any tips or comments about this location? Also doing an Airbnb out of the state I live in?

@Mark Holmes Tampa is a great market with strong revenue for short term rentals. If you have particular neighborhoods or cities you are looking at, I can provide you with an analysis to assist you in a decision. When it comes to operating out of state, I can also provide you with some systems to help you manage your property. If you would like to be hands off I can assist you in managing it as well. Feel free to reach out to me and connect.
Thanks!
