I have lived in Truckee for over 23 years and understand the pain you can go through dealing with a local government where the answer you received on Monday is different than the answer you receive on Tues, Wed, Thur & maybe even Friday if anyone is working.

You need someone to sit down and evaluate the entity from that standpoint, not just as it relates to income from the property after you got married (and Congrats on the recent wedding!)

I plan on converting the barn into another sleeping space and indoor/outdoor rec room.

FHA does not allow for luxury items like adding pools or outdoor kitchens.

I have noticed that properties that allow pets in outdoor based communities perform great as well!

From what I’ve heard in a piece by Forbes, focusing on unique features can lead to higher long-term rental satisfaction... especially if your tenants want a few animals or more outdoor space.

I have an outdoor pool that easily have 1k+ people using it every season and I never had single complaint due to the water quality.

Beautiful weather, outdoor activities, and a vibrant culture add an extra layer of appeal for both residents and investors.But Florida isn't a one-size-fits-all market.

That being said if you are willing to start with a smaller property or have more cash reserves than we did as we were preparing for our wedding you can make the deals happen you just have to be creative with it. 

Outdoor storage, moving services, additional parking.
