Refreshing to see posts pointing out that if you want any chance of making money in STR in Central Florida you have to do it yourself.Only buy what you can afford with few to no bookings, pay all your own bills, do all your own bookings and find a small team to do your local legwork (Mom and Pop).You'll have a chance then....
