As long as you purchase a condo with a STR friendly HOA and have a decent PM system while you are away, Miami is a great market for this.

@Timothy Lewis Ouch... that is rough. I know Tyler mentioned you had a rough time but I had no idea it was that bad. We were actually introduced to Tyler via this purchase and have now used him to purchase 2 more properties in Memphis. 

Atwood is a neat property. The attached MIL was a huge selling point for us. It has done surprisingly well as an Airbnb (despite the location).  

 @Tyler Tapley is a Rock Star! Good luck with all future endeavors.

@Timothy Lewis It is! I just checked out your profile...you flipped this property? If so, I have an earful for you! Just kidding :)

I mostly blame the PM company you used for all of the grief this property has caused us. 

I think I might have more to say! haha. I was paying out a contactor in draws to do this rehab. When I finally had a third party go and inspect his work, NOTHING WAS DONE! A pipe burst in the attic and the entire house was flooded. He was sending me pics of a different property for his draw payments. Long story short, I sued him and had to get a company to complete the rehab. Major learning experience!! I'm glad it's working out for you.
