But all the articles I read , says it's best to use cost segregation(which will eventually be recaptured when sold or do a 1031) Given it's vacant for 3 months in 2024 .

Very limited doesn't really convey it in venue sense, nearly non-existent is more accurate. 

Hey @Brett Baker, generally, any place with a great water view or directly on the water will bring more revenue.Of course profitability will all be based on purchase price and prevailing nightly rates in the area.If you find a cool 2/2 or 3/2 right on the water with a great view for 1.5m or a 2/2 or 3/2 house a block away for 600k, then I would look at the house over the condo.

$40,000 x 25%(assuming a 25% interest rate on credit cards) = $10,000This is more than the annual cash-flow that you are getting from the rental.I would look at a way to paying off the credit card debt asap.Look to see if you can take a HELOC on the investment property(likely difficult).If you can't you may want to consider selling the proprety.You will also feel a lot of relief of not having credit card debt hanging over you.What is the interest rate on the car loan?

I started a property management company in 2017 and am now managing almost 800 doors and 6 construction crews.If I could do it all over again, I would have spent a little more time setting up business systems prior to jumping in. 

I had done extensive reading and research on best practices and entity implementation that would best meet my specific needs.  

That means that you will need to get those particular ducks in a row before you get rolling.Also, sites like Taskrabbit.com has a lot of folks on there that can help get things put together, setup the spaces etc.
