good area to buy. would love to discuss if you are looking for financing options

😊In other cases the ambiguity made it almost impossible to buy and insure. 

Because later on, if you want to get a business line of credit, apply for grants, or pivot into a different industry (like buying an ice cream truck—hey, life happens), you can use the same LLC without lenders or banks assuming you're only doing risky real estate deals.

You can't just go buy commercial RE.

But if you buy the property well, your downside risk is that it is short term rentals don't work, and you can simply sell it for hopefully no less than what you paid.That would be my mindset.

I'm not saying I would do this, and I haven't done the math yet, though I think I could get a normal policy with hurricane/wind as well as the prosper policy for less than it would cost to add wind/hurricane to the prosper policy.Hurricanes typically turn into tropical storms at best by the time they get to Orlando, so I don’t buy the same type of policy they offering for those on coast. 

Take your flip profits in CA, and buy with those profits for CF in the Midwest. 

Jimmy  - Thank you for the input, definitely buy and hold.

Figure out what they're willing to pay, use those numbers to refine your search on houses you should buy. 

Rather than just spending the money on a rate buy down.
