A property management company can take this burden entirely from your shoulders and perform the management functions in a more systematized and automated manner, saving the landlord countless hours of time and effort.

I currently have an airbnb in the Tampa Bay area which is performing well.

I just had to share this as it's been a complete game changer for the performance of our company.

If you are a real estate professional, you may potentially be able to buy some rental properties, perform cost segregation studies and eliminate the taxable income.The issue, is in a couple more years, your PM company will likely be more profitable and you will have rental proprties with reduced depreciation, further increasing your tax burden.

As a GC, able to perform all the work myself, I saw massive value add potential with this property.

Sea World and Universal is a large draw on top of golf, conferences and sporting tournaments.

This classic “leveraged buyout” is the basis for what we call “private equity” (KKR) today, but of course requires significant capital, business and financial expertise and experience, and a business target large enough to attract top tier management with incentives to out perform the previous management.   

PadSplit / co-living are just now becoming popular around this area but the problem is determining the rents so I can perform my underwriting accurately.

There is a shortage of inventory...in both the real estate market and the rental market and we see SFH's perform very well.
