Blake,Your in a great spot in Cape Coral its growing fast and soon the Seven Islands will be done and offer a ton of more value and attractions for tourists/renters. 

With new programs opening here, there will definitely be an influx of new residents.

It's essential for me to acquire these skills as I navigate potential roles in the real estate industry.If you have any insights, recommendations, or perhaps know of specific training programs or resources for learning Yardi, I would greatly appreciate your guidance.

Personally I think this is where a lot of sale lease back programs fail the seller.

In many cases bigger banks or lenders have specific programs that cater to first time home buyers and investors. 

If it's just a money grab and there is no desire to associate with the aforementioned, you will most likely be on the losing end and feel very negative about the program.

I would like a book or program recommendations in order to learn how to purchase and manage the extended stay hotel.

Hi Treza,Not sure where you are in the process there, but when your ready to exercise financing options please reach out, it's very difficult to find a ground up program for inexperienced borrowers without having an experienced GC sign on the loan with you which in turn is not easy to find. 

I use to rent to Section 8 in Philly but the program started to be too much of a headache. 

Many states have a "reciprocal license" program to simplify the process.
