Since this is a long-term investment, it’s still important to prioritize areas with strong population growth and a healthy job market—both are great indicators of long-term potential.

Read it and employ it.The only thing I'd really hammer home is understand and study the market you want to get into-- meaning visit it multiple times, know the streets, get a healthy understanding.

It’s considered an act of god if a strong wind blows down a healthy tree that nobody expected to fall, but if a dead tree has been looking like it’s about to fall for awhile and the owner has been notified of the hazard it causes, then their inaction can cause them to be negligent in addressing the hazard, and they may be found to be liable.

The other thing to consider is the age and if you add a second floor will the entire structure need to be brought up to code for hurricane and wind.I live in a neighborhood where the homes are older (not in florida) and the foundations are hollow core CMU and adding a second floor would not be feasible due to soil bearing.
