You can also find real estate investing groups through meetup.com, Facebook, or a Google search.

Hey @Megan OConnor, I can't comment on the area specifically but it is doable.You need to search AirBNB and VRBO to get a look at the competition (don't forget to look at VRBO)You have to work into your plans the downturn during the off season.

Great location! 

What's the location, purchase price, expected Reno cost, ARV, etc.?
