@Kim Robinson Windsor Hills is a pretty sought after community for investors looking to be close to Disney with a premier community. The people that purchase in there generally know what they have and hold on for their price, I have made many offers on behalf of clients and the sellers just typically aren't motivated and that keeps the pricing pretty stable. The occupancy rates are higher than many other nearby communities because they have a  good inventory, amenities and proximity to the parks and the reputation keeps people coming back. I did have a client purchase in there just before The pandemic started and they completely redid the decor and theme. They have experienced good returns throughout the Summer. 

If there are some homes you are serious about, I can get us on a call with a couple of the property managers in there that offer some guarantees on occupancy. Happy to help so reach out anytime.

@Logan Larochelle I am connected to many of the wholesalers, with all degrees of 'reputable'. If you have good systems in place to analyze your deals and know the market well enough, you can still find some descent deals here. Let me know if you want to connect and perhaps I can help out.

Hi @Moises Diaz, although I can't share contact info, please reach out to Eliot Grime with VE Builders, he is extremely investor friendly and does great work. Since our market is so busy, many contractors have turned to charging for estimates as everyone wants them for free, so not sure what he is doing, but be prepared.

@Ricardo Loredo I just closed on a duplex for an investor from BP. They are house hacking for a year or two and then doing it again. They are very close to UCF. Properties in this area sell very quickly and for top dollar as it is such a good market for exactly what you want to do. I would be happy to talk over your plan and see if I can help you achieve it. Reach out anytime.
