Living in the properties while fixing them up is a great way to build equity and keep costs low.

If we meet a resident through an OTA, we enjoy certain protections with that platform, but if, at any time, the resident wishes to extend, but not through the platform, we require the same background check, credit check, and eviction check as for anyone else not booking through an OTA. 

Congrats on your pre-approval and your plan to make Florida your primary residence while leveraging house hacking or short-term rentals (STRs).

They instead use conventional conforming loans with low down payments meant for primary residences to purchase properties ready to live in!

It's worth about $350,000 and no liens.I was thinking about making it a midterm rental or a short-term rental but it would require quite a bit of work and would require getting a home equity loan.Also considering selling and buying a turnkey str.I do plan on leaving the country and I'm not sure where I'll end up.Would love to hear the pros and cons from all you professionals.

However, are you planning to do a 1031 exchange, or is this a primary residence? 

@Michael VelezHouse hacking is a great way to start investing, as it helps you reduce living expenses while building equity.
