As others have said there are many experienced RE agents, management companies, and so on...Best of luck to you! 

I know people who do this and I do not believe there are issues with it, but speak to an attorney and they should probably notify the company if they are an employee of that company that they are doing this.

I saw a notice on the door from the city and I tried to get some info on the owner but it looks like an investment company has owned it for several years but no one has been in there.

Do you use a title company?

I am wanting to purchase a condo in the St Pete Beach (preferable Treasure Island) market post hurricane(s).

Many of the investors that I work with prefer the LTR strategy. 

Preferably 3 beds 2 bath. 

The insurance companies might require this. 

Do you have a preferred point of contact?

Don’t focus on buying or selling right away—just connect and build trust.Both brokers and sellers prefer doing business with those they know and trust.
