Ideally it would be a single family or small multi-unit that I could set up as an Air bnb or long term rental with the goal of moving to St Pete to live in within the next 5-10 years.

Right now I've shadowed a guy who does a lot of air bnb's up here and know the market fairly well and what would need to be done.

Bigger Pockets is a breathe of fresh air in a society where branding and marketing are overplayed. 

Verify air filter has been changed regularly.

You certainly won't say I paid to thin air.

The basics of course, but there is an air fryer, crockpot, 2 level steamer, wok, electric griddle, and the list goes on.

If your buying a building that’s $500k, you need to be getting at least $5k a month if not more or it’s not worth looking at in my opinion unless there is some other revenue source (ability to add bedrooms or units, air bnb) or you can increase rents substantially.

In about 30 days air conditioning will not be neede

There are a couple air bnbs that seem to do okay but there is nothing unique about them.What I'm asking for is help/thoughts/ideas with this:1. 

A little about me: I'm a two-time combat veteran with the US Air Force.
