Hi Gregory - The Fort Lauderdale market is extremely saturated & overvalued to start. 

. - Two single family homes in a community reinvestment act, therefore only require 3% down, get 1% of rate, and receive $6,000 towards closing costs.In order to receive these extremely low down payments, i would have to technically live in the residence for a few months as they do not offer these for investment properties. 

Working with a competent SEO expert will help your cause.

Those exposed walls were not built to be exposed so I would suggest talking to a variety of experts to hear them out on the options.

lesson learned is always listen to your guts and dont apoy to much attention to the oether even if they are experts in the area.
