That sounds so amazing!!! You could do events and offer onsite chef availability for large parties.  How cool!  Put a fire pit outside and make a really neat outside area for entertaining.  Make it a destination stay for sure! I am in the Tampa Bay Florida area and you can't find land like unless you go out away from the beach areas which is what we are known for.

Have you thought about house hacking?  If you have the mobility to do so it's a great way to get your feet wet and learn along the way!!!!  It is pretty popular here in the Tampa Florida area among your age group.

I'm in the Tampa Florida area and we charged 20% of gross profits.  I know the larger companies around here were charging up to 25% but it will probably vary no matter where you are at.

@Ivan Castanon 

I am in the Tampa area as well!!! Have you thought about trying to do a sub-to or any sort of partnership to do a BRRRR. If you have the right people in place it can still be done. You just have to get creative! I'm happy to help!

I agree with the time/effort rule.  How much time do you have and how much effort do you want to put into the property.  I've hosted 12 units by myself in the Tampa Florida area, but it was my full time job.  Utilize your resources on here and I'm sure you can come to a happy conclusion on wheather to self manage or hire a PM company.

It depends on what municipality you are in here in the Tampa area. Pinellas county has all kids of different rules depending on exactly where you are. It's safer to at least have alarms in n doors if not the fencing.  Especially since we have lots of pools.

I'm in the Tampa area and mainly had mine in the Pinellas County area.  We also had a transient tax and municipality as well. I used Hostify and you can work it into the management system to figure and charge all of that for you.
