I am starting with a small budget(100k-120k) so trying to understand which neighborhoods I should focus on, would love to get recommendations if you have :) I live south of the city and only like to go about 30 minutes away from home. 

They had carpeted the bedrooms and common areas, and the living room was still original wood...well I decided to pull up the old carpet and lo and behold - original wood in pristine condition.

I lived in it for a year and loved the location.

I live in Ocala and have never heard of this company, but that doesn't mean anything since I prefer to buy already built properties and rehab them. 

@Jason Wray, The reason that our shop is pretty hot about your post is two-fold, we do all of the things that you are implying that we don't (other than government loans, we don't work in that space). 

Good morning,Bigger Pockets Forums, Today I’m doing the inspection of what I hope becomes my first real estate investment.I spent the last 2 months reading, listening to podcasts, talking to other investors, combing through listings, and visiting properties in Baltimore near where I live.  

Also Mid-Term Rentals to traveling professionals, people displaced for insurance reasons, or doing a renovation to their home and needing a place to live for  3 months or more are also possibilities.

Hi Adriana, I am a commercial real estate investor in the U.S. but I live in Dubai.In terms of the BRRR strategy, you could probably do a fix and flip in some of the older villa communities like the Springs, Meadows, or Arabian Ranches 1.

The law does NOT apply to landlords:With less then 5 rental unitsThat live in one unit of a duplex and rent out the other unitThat rent out rooms in the home they occupySo, landlords can no longer state in their rental ads, "Section 8 not accepted".The reverse is also true, "Section 8 only", cannot be used.We've always recommended screening S8 tenants the same way as cash-paying tenants.Landlords waiving application fees and/or security deposits only for S8 prospects may also be violating Fair Housing.

@Michael Smythe the repairs were never completed while the tenant was living there.
