The demand for vacation rentals in places like Destin, 30A, and Panama City Beach remains strong.

As an investor-friendly agent based in New Jersey, I’ve seen folks leverage a strong network (like probate attorneys, local wholesalers, or even specialized divorce attorneys) to find properties that don’t always pop up in public listings.

Can some of your concerns be mitigated (locally) through things like strong tenant vetting and property class selection?

@Pranav PatelStarting your real estate journey with $50K saved and a strong income ahead is a fantastic position to be in.

I have a friend who is a banker locally, he's seen business bank numbers for 40 years...he know what makes a strong business client and when it is a weak business with some good years.

Destin is a great spot for house hacking—tourism is strong, so renting out part of your property could help with the mortgage.

What started off as primarily a second home with the possibility of short term leasing quickly flipped to a STR first and a second home when not rented because demand is so strong right now for STR's in this area. 

I think it could be due to niche cabins still having a strong nightly rate but I’m a total noob. 

Building a strong team is essential for success, and we’re here to help.

Hey fellow suburban Illinois BPers - Not sure if this has been sent/shared previously, but thought it'd be good to recap - Chicago Agent Magazine recently reported that suburban Chicago was ranked the second-hottest rental market in the nation (Here’s the article.).This confirms what a lot of us have seen: demand for rentals is really strong in the suburbs right now.
