Tampa, FL is a great market. 4-bedroom house in Southwest Tampa with average occupancy between 55-72% can get you 80-102k.

There's a ton of new construction happening throughout the valley with concentrations in the northwest, southwest, and south central parts of town.  

I've been listening to the podcasts and analyzing properties in the area close to my office in Houston in the Westchase area (northwest of the Southwest Freeway and Beltway 8 intersection). 

I like the South West corridor around I-55, This would be Little Village/South Lawndale, West Part of Pilsen, McKinley Park, Brighton Park.

I want to buy an STR in southwest Florida.

 It seems new home construction is really taking off in Collier, Lee, Charlotte and Sarasota counties. Are there any investors with experience in these areas? Are there scattered lot opportunities?

Have you ever considered Southwest Florida?

Cash invested: $500,000 Various commercial real estate syndications, including multi-family, industrial and quick serve restaurants located throughout the nation, with geographic emphasis in the Pac NW, Desert Southwest, Southeast and Mid-West.

It is great to be able to point to Tripadvisor, Delta, American, United, and Southwest airlines, some of the biggest brands in the world, as being bullish on our market. 

If you are planning on holding the property long term I would suggest looking on the west south west side of town.
