@Devin Bost, I understand the dilemma you're facing in choosing between full-service property management and a more hands-on approach for your short-term rental.

Awesome approach, it is best to meet with the agents in real life, see the neighborhoods and get the vibe in real life.I usually talk to them on the forum for about 6 months and then take the next step..to see how dedicated and professional they are .

Your deal structure involves a hybrid approach of a land contract, "subject-to" financing, and flipping.

Stay informed, adjust your strategies, and make the most of the opportunities ahead.The Palm Beach real estate market is shifting, but with the right approach, it’s full of potential for everyone involved!

Hello Bryson,It's fantastic to see your proactive approach towards real estate investing, especially at such a young stage.

Can try to reposition to Class B, but neighborhood may impede these efforts.Vacancy Est: Historically 10%, but 15-20% should be used to also cover tenant nonpayment, eviction costs & damages.Tenant Pool: majority will have FICO scores of 560-620 (approaching 22% probability of default), many blemishes, but should have no evictions in last 2 years.

Hi Ben,Balancing a full-time job while getting started in real estate can be challenging, but it's definitely manageable with the right approach.

Your insights were incredibly helpful and have given me a new perspective on the process.I appreciate the time you took to explain your approach, and I’m excited to apply some of your tips to my own investments.Thanks again for being so generous with your knowledge!

Basically the Dave Ramsey approach as well..  7.

I was incredibly saddened... if anything they should have integrated Credit Karma into Mint not the other way around.
