Are there people in Fort Worth that are actively involved in wholesaling and/or fixing fliping?

Hi @Shane Gorski,You're absolutely correct regarding the difficulties of STR's in Naples, there certainly are a few other local cities that are much more conducive to that strategy, Bonita Springs, Cape Coral, and Fort Myers Beach being a few of the major ones.

I am an out of state investor and looking at duplexes in fort valley close to fort valley state university.

I live in DFW area and have lived in both Dallas and Fort Worth and some of the suburbs.

We just acquired an existing duplex in Fort Lauderdale and planning on tearing it down and build a new duplex instead.

The list is a nationwide list the Miami-Fort-Lauderdale area made number 2 on the list Orlando was ranked 6 on the nation wide list, so judging by the post I think it would be safe to assume Florida is one of the best states for fix-n-flips. 

Quote from @Errol Sadler: Hi BP community,I’ve successfully added a second story to a home in Atlanta and am now exploring whether this is feasible in Fort Lauderdale, FL.

I am not a PM but live here in the Fort Worth area.

In some cases interest paid on the HELOC can be tax deductible if the funds are used for home improvements.Best of luck from Fort Worth! 

Cheers from Fort Worth
