Beautiful weather, outdoor activities, and a vibrant culture add an extra layer of appeal for both residents and investors.But Florida isn't a one-size-fits-all market.

If you're planning to rehab properties for rental or flipping, a hard money lender might be the right fit.

Though I have purchased some with a mix where 330+ days a year, people parked in the driveway and the street except when there were snow bans, but there was enough room to fit everyone in the driveway/parking lot, and that was a hassle to deal with some days. 

There's no one size fits all of course, but generally the STR/MTR/LTR mix in a multi-family unit can be challenging because the way renters utilize these properties is so different.

I took two business law courses in college. 

Of course, every buyer needs to do their own diligence.

An out of state investment didn’t feel like the right fit for us either.

Are there specific factors you look for in an area to make sure it’s a good fit for this type of rental setup?

Thanks for posting of course but feel free to reach out with anything else.

Of course, live wherever you want, if you see that storms are becoming difficult, it is easier to sell one home and move.
