Jacksonville will only continue to grow..check in with @Joseph Chiofalo he's a excellent local lender excellent at educating first time investors.

Wayfair pro line has excellent light fixtures and other items, that would look great in a STR rehab and help keep costs down as well. 

New York City is an excellent market to invest in - but you need to manage your risks accordingly and have a long-term focus. 

I agree 100% @Peter Davis the entire SW Florida area looks excellent and has a bright future.

ive always just used an excel spreadsheet with coding to categorize the expenses

A healthy RE investment team includes an efficient and excellent mortgage loan originator.Being dual licensed as a mortgage broker since 2003 has enabled me to identify, align and collaborate with lenders that make a meaningful difference in the investment results of clients and their portfolios. 

Mixed usages, such as a furnished mid term rental of one unit or vacation rental usage (where permitted) is also an excellent way to boost revenue.

I have been given the opportunity to start an Investor division at my Brokerage.Our goal is to create a team of highly skilled agents who excel in understanding and meeting the unique needs of investors.
