STR in the Gulf of Mexico/Gulf Shores, Destin, St. George Island

[Christy Tulipana]

We have been looking at investing in a condo we can use for Short Term Rentals and limited personal use. We are finding the market in Destin very high and are having a hard time finding anything that would mostly pay for itself w/rental income. We have also been considering other areas up and down the gulf, like Gulf Shore/Orange Beach, Destin/30A areas, Mexico Beach and St. George Island. We are a little overwhelmed zoning in on a particular area to focus our search. Would love to hear your experiences with Short Term Rentals in these area of if there is a place you prefer over the other.
