Elise Bickel is an investor friendly agent we've worked with, so she may be a resource.

That said, I have a good friend of mine who is very well seasoned in this space, whom i have immense respect for, once told me he won't work with anyone who he hasn't known for at least 5 years.

Growing your network for you with investor-friendly agents will be the best thing to do for you.

Focus on factors like affordability, growth potential, demand, and landlord-friendly regulations to guide your decision.Good luck!

The SPB and TI areas are actually generally not STR friendly and have 30 night minimums for single family residences. 

A real-estate friend and then our agent, Jordan Clemans.

I’m looking to access some of the equity in the home to buy out my ex-partner, and my goal is to either convert the house into a multifamily property or add a dwelling unit (ADU).I’d love to hear any advice from the community on the best way to approach this, particularly in terms of financing options, legal considerations, or any similar projects you've completed.

I was young, poor and a friend who was a broker called me when a dump in an upcoming neighborhood came available.

You’ll find plenty of friendly, knowledgeable people willing to respond to your posts.

I have a family friend who is a GC and been building MF homes in the city for years.
