Considerations we've heard/read about are: distance to primary residence, location of the property in comparison to the primary residence (ie, if we live by the beach and we buy a property by the beach, it's likely not our vacation or second home, whereas living inland and buying in downtown or by the beach could be a more likely second or vacation home), and minimum timeframes for owner occupancy (like 14 nights if we eventually choose to do STRs there).We live inland and if this does allow us to buy at a higher price point, we're open to looking in more tourist-y areas of the city.

If you aren't familiar with the Orlando area here are a few things to think about.Disney is always a draw both for employees and visitors.Universal's new park is set to open in the summer of 2025, this will not only bring a new flood of tourists to the area but set to bring in 15k-20k new full time jobs.Orlando is currently trying to fix its traffic situation with express lanes being installed between Orlando to Tampa, expanding the International Airport and working on the final leg of the express train system from Orlando to Tampa.
