For instance I was seeing insane growth and development in pasco county, wesley chapel areas outside of tampa, and actually had a hell of a time finding industrial space in Bradenton FL, so at least on the commercial side of things from my limited experience there didn't seem to be a down turn or softening, so its so interesting to here your take on your local market there as well.  

However, the previous landlord permitted them to take over an additional 3,000 square feet on the second floor, which is now filled with inventory and unusable for other purposes.While this tenant has been reliable and has a long-standing relationship with the property, their occupancy of this extra space is limiting our ability to maximize rental revenue.

Another obstacle is limiting my personal liability.

We all have a limited amount of time to work, and there’s a constant push to maximize that time to earn as much as possible—so we can enjoy life beyond work.Most people work to meet their immediate needs—food, clothing, and shelter.

Going to find seller financing deals with 0-10%, finding limited partners who want to double their money in 2-3 years and cover all cost, pure sweat equity.If i close on a multifamily thats worth $1m now, 10% down seller financing so bank isn't involved, after value add it's worth $1.5m, that's a 5x on cash.

My limited experience with cosigners is that they are nowhere to be found when needed. 

The city is limiting STR's to 250 houses which has been used for a few years now.

It could limit me from getting my next investment property since I am not accumulating as fast now but around my area cash flowing properties are very difficult to find.

However, without individual meters, accurately measuring usage for each unit could be challenging.

Retail real estate continues to be a valuable asset amid limited availability and high demand.
