@Jorge Conty I see it is your first post welcome to BP.Generally when population is leaving, that is bad for rentals.

The web site is primitive by today's standards, but surprisingly was the only such game in town in the late 1990s.http://www.retireearlyhomepage.com/Today, I use the 3% SWR from a portfolio of highly diversified asset classes (the asset allocation strategy), along with the growing stream of dividends from a cherry-picked portfolio of Dividend Aristocrats (the dividend growth strategy).

The script I used came from the book "Buying Real Estate Without Cash or Credit" by Peter Conti and David Finkel, but I tweaked it a bit so it would flow more naturally to my personality and the way I am used to talking.

There are no shortcuts but Finkel and Conti's books are good.

Hi,I have two condos near Fort Lauderdale, Florida (Broward Conty) that I bought cash and each would appraise at around 80k today.

It lays out the case for value add plays that apply's to all food groups IMHO.Its a Whole New Business by Gene Trowbridge is essential.The Dummies book is actually good with Peter Conti and Peter HarrisCommercial Real Estate Investing with Dolf De Roos was pretty goodWhat Every Real Estate Investor Needs to Know by Frank GallinelliAvoid Lindhal beyond his books which are great i.e. his guru model is full on.Deal Makers Guide by Ray Alcorn is EPIC but pricey.
