Looking to start investing in the Orlando market

[Teresa Sargeant]

Hi everyone! My name is Teresa. I’m looking to get my feet wet investing in the Orlando market not only because I call it home, but also because there’s so much job, population, and tourism industry growth here. I’m excited to be on this forum and to be in the real estate business in general☺️

@Teresa Sargeant welcome! If you are looking for buy and hold cash flow in Orlando, I would suggest keeping your search area wide enough to pull in some of the surrounding areas (Deltona, Sanford, Lake County, Brevard County, Osceola, even Polk etc). Harder to find cash flow in Orlando urban core, but not impossible. I see stuff on the market all the time that is .8% rent to purchase ratio. Close enough to 1%. If you buy right and forecast expenses correctly, you can do well with that type of property.
