Quote from @Himateja Madala: Hey folks,I am brand new to STR's and am here looking for suggestions around STR in Kissimmee area.

Can't give you suggestions for financing, but for where to buy look at Alberta or another province without foreign buyer. 

Interesting addition when you suggest that builders are the only ones to reap any profits. 

I am wondering if this area is 1) investable, 2) safe, 3) What is the long term outlook for this community? 

That ours is 3/4 inch out suggested settling since the warranty passed and/or a serious enough issue to remedy. - Drainage patterns and erosion around the foundation were consistent with the settling we saw, suggesting the slab foundation had been continuously undermined throughout the 23-year life of the house. - We plan on holding the property as a long-term rental, and the amortized cost of the repairs is marginal.

My suggestion is showing the landlord your text messages confirming that your conversation was about just the two rooms.

If you're looking for appraisal value an ADU may not be the best bet, but if you intend to sell, my anecdotal evidence suggests in dense highly desirable neighborhoods, ADU square footage will gross the same as the main house.

I’m wondering if $23k of my own liquidated funds is reasonable to start looking for an investment property?

I took your suggestion and spent the night checking through the cities Master Plan.

Just wondering how you feel about the unique challenges NOLA has relative to economy & climate change (insurance), population decline.
