I'm up there all the time, happy to connect. 

For family life, there are great communities with good schools and a lot of kid-friendly activities.

The holidays are a magical time, full of family gatherings, laughter, and... real estate deals?

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.

Even with the discount, the investor will be a life style investor who wants to own in PR more than optimize return.  

I wouldn't bet my life on 50%, but I would bet they are more problematic than the typical long-term renter.

At this stage in my life, equity growth is more important than monthly cash flow.

Thanks for your time and feedback. 

Hi everyone, Happy New Year!
I just bought my first rental property in Baltimore, MD, and I’m planning to rent it out by the room, including the basement. The property is located near two colleges, so I’m focusing on...

But I strongly urge anyone to always get Aldermanic support before proceeding because it makes life--and the entire project / process--a whole lot easier. :)IN SUM: Based on what you've shared, it sounds like you won't need to rezone if you just want to build a duplex.
