This means that an owner cannot legally operate a short-term (less than 30 days) vacation rental in the county, except for one zoned residential, multiple-family on the barrier islands.City of SarasotaThe city of Sarasota does permit short-term vacation rentals with a minimum lease duration of one week.

I have found a property that I like for my new primary residence and I am trying to see if the seller is open to a longer duration close where I rent from the seller for 90-120 days to allow enough time for the investment properties to get leased.I am also considering asking if they would be willing to explore a seller-financed option but I don't know how to structure that so that a regular seller might find that more attractive than a regular closing. 

Also, an NDA should not seek to prevent a disclosure demanded by law, for example, an NDA to prevent a person from reporting a crime which the person is legally obligated to report will not be enforceable.The scope, duration and restrictions in the NDA must be reasonable.

High level $200k for a $36k gross return is a low yield..however I think there are a few variables..with 35% down you should be able to get stronger lending terms, if the seller is workable you could entertain a concession towards a rate buy down for lower obligations, possibility to look at shorter duration (ARM) loans if you only intend to own 3-5 years which could also offer a lower rate.

These loans often have interest-only payment options, meaning you only pay the interest for the duration of the loan or a shorter period based on the market conditions.
