Quote from @JooYung Choi: Have you considered purchasing a short term rental?

Another thing to add is the regulations, HOAs and Cities are imposing a lot of regulation on short-term rentals or rent by a room, I have seen some HOAs regulate the amount of people authorized to rent the property too.It requires to do a lot of due dilligence to begin with mainly in such big house. 

My wife and I own it together, but i may be able to buy her out and keep it as a short-term rental without spending all my personal capital.I’m looking for advice on financing options, buyout strategies, and any creative solutions others have used in similar situations.

I haven’t reached out to any lenders yet but have a short list of them compiled.

New builds, new developments, plenty of rentals within driving distance of the city center, and there are still plenty of areas where a good eye for a rehab job will get you a good ROI.

You won't find one PM that hits all 3 markets as there is a pretty decent distance between the 3.

I’m based in Tampa and run Graystone Investment Group, focusing heavily on helping (out of state) investors find and manage properties here in Florida.Totally agree on the importance of understanding those short-term rental rules in Florida—each area can feel like its own little country with all the different regulations!

I'm currently listed for short term rentals and am starting to get a few bookings into April and May...would hate to cancel BUT would take MTR as preference.

Given your strong credit score, a credit union or peer-to-peer lending platform may offer better short-term financing rates.

These are 668 square feet and will rent $1600-$1800 depending on the urban adjacent neighborhood. that's rental prices of $2.39 to $2.69 per square foot. that's on a long term rental. on a short term rental the prices would be higher but we haven't had any clients do that yet.
