All that said, I actual in cocoa beach area so probably even more desired than orlando but orlando was all it would allow me to select when setting up my account.

i would not buy a random property in Alabama that you find on Zillow and turn it over to people you've never met just because the price point is appealing.here are some threads on how that can go:https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/48/topics/1160450-run-i...https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/12/topics/1215726-break...https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/48/topics/1137397-balti...i own property in 3 states - happy to answer any questions you have.

Investment Info:Townhouse buy & hold investment.

that OR consider buying a property you could short-term rent to people who literally just want to visit the casino if it's a large/decent one. 

People will rent homes in that area because they cannot yet afford to buy, but hope to buy a newer home in the future and keep the kids in the same school system and around their same friends.

And it can work really well for you as long as you pay attention to the statute requirements.In order to defer all tax you are selling investment real estate and buying investment real estate of at least the same value you sold. 

Buy your next property with all cash, fix it up with cash, and then do a cash-out refinance afterward.

For example, if you buy a home for 100k, and then improve the property and now it is worth 200k. 

Knowing what to budget for when buying a home may feel intimidating — but it doesn’t have to be.
