 Ah!! I have heard a lot about 30A and we've done Destin too for our vacations but switched to Pensacola since Destin is getting so commercialized, and I go on vacation to relax, not wait in long lines or be in traffic,  but I can definitely see your point that there is more opportunity in that market for sure when it comes to investing. 

 We actually have always loved the Pensacola area. We typically go there on vacation and last year, there were tons of investment properties and homes being flipped for short-term rental. In fact, the Airbnb we stayed in was brand new construction with other new homes for sale in an area that was being redeveloped, so I definitely could see myself revisiting that market to see how it's doing today. Looks like you do a lot in Destin. Do you do anything in the Pensacola area as well? 

@Chris Seveney Thank you for your reply. Wouldn't this be based on the market area you're in? If you don't recommend doing a BRRR what would you recommend instead? Love to hear your thoughts/ideas.

@Jason Wray Thanks so much for your feedback. I am actually in contact with some agents who have some opportunities in my area I'm interested in. Since I posted this, I have learned more about the BRRR method and my next step is to start building my team or at least start having some on my list to contact when I'm ready. I have also learned that when you're doing the flipping part, it seems like you literally become a GC, so that intimidates me a bit, but I'm up for the challenge. I see you are a Lender yourself, so I will definitely keep you in mind.

I am super new to this, but I figured instead of sitting on 120K cash, I should do something with it like invest in my first rental! :D I am looking to do the BRRRR method. I am thinking I need to build a team first and I would like to work with a wholesaler to get started. What is the best way to search for properties? I am open to all and any ideas/thoughts! TIA
