Daytona Beach Market PROS and CONS
I am currently looking at the Daytona Beach area for buy-and-hold SFH and small multifamily properties. Interested in hearing PROS and CONS of the market and connect with anyone who knows the market.
Can anyone can recommend good Property Management, Brokers/Agents, and local lenders?

Wow. Some of the responses to investing in Volusia are crazy! I could be wrong but the people commenting don’t seem like they even have investment properties here, but have a person feeling about it because they lived here at onetime. The other counties mention above have there same issues too, but as whole you can find great and safe investsments anywhere if you do your own due diligence. Daytona was rencemtly marked as the 3rd hottest market to invest in 2018. We have 15 rentals here and non of them have zombies or meth heads. Lol. We also wholesale a bunch here and I can give you testimonials of buyers who are very happy that they have investments in Daytona and the surrounding areas.
