Waterfront homes, particularly those with Gulf access, can command higher prices and potentially higher returns on investment.3) Tourism and Vacation Rentals: Cape Coral's proximity to popular tourist destinations like Fort Myers Beach and Sanibel Island makes it attractive for vacation rentals, especially during peak tourist seasons.4) Affordability: Compared to other coastal areas in Florida, Cape Coral offers relatively affordable real estate options.

Hi Chris.I have been a local property manager in Fort Myers for 25+ years and if I can help you, let me know. 

I also learned that my forte is not doing handyman stuff myself.

Baldwin County has two main areas that I would look into:Daphne-Spanish Fort-Fairhope areas and the beach areas of Gulf Shores and Orange BeachThere are also multiple areas of Mobile that make for great appreciation plays:Spring Hill, 36608MidtownWest MobileSaraland is right outside of Mobile and is growing rapidly as well

I'm looking at the property 5113-5111 Ave #G, Fort Worth, TX 76105 and it is the duplex for $419,990 right now.

Just a friendly reminder that commissions are not set and can be negotiated.Cheers from Fort Worth. 

Hi BP community, New investor here recently purchased my first investment property (duplex) in Fort Wayne!

Year 1 is going to be tough to cash flow, but the population has essentially doubled in Fort Bend County in the last 10-12 years.

Good places are Arlington and Fort Worth in my view.Townhouses and condos are difficult beasts, I would prefer townhouses, I have some investors friends that they didn't want to go with a mantainance headache so they bought townhouses, but those are expensive and they are Long-term.Condos are a bit old in DFWHowever, all deals on that you would need to have an investor friendly realtor to help you with.

I've sold a rental (duplex) in Fort Wayne with tenants on both sides of the duplex.
