I wanted to create an STR experience and bring my bold ideas to life.

Where do you want to be in life in 3-5 years?

As with most things in life, you get what you pay for. 

Here is a real life story of what recently happened in my portfolio.I received a 60 day notice that my apartment was going to be vacant starting December 1st.

I would talk first to an electrician as many do fire alarm and life safety.

If you truly want to "retire" young, keep investing and living your life you'll need a ton more.

I've done it twice in Reno, NV and it's changed my life. 

While I don’t regret anything in my life if I was to go back in time I would finish the real estate degree and go into something real estate when I graduated at 22 instead of doing it half-as**ed for years.

I’m at the stage now where I’m shifting my focus to cost of living and overall quality of life in each area.

A single-family home or small multi-unit property can be a great way to dip your toes in the water.Build a Team: Even if you’re planning to handle most things yourself, having a good real estate agent, property manager (if needed), and a reliable handyman can make life so much easier.Learn the Local Laws: Pensacola is pretty investor-friendly, but it’s always good to know local zoning laws and short-term rental regulations if you’re thinking about Airbnb or VRBO.Run the Numbers: Make sure you’re clear on the property’s cash flow potential.
