I am in Florida and we have a strong STR market and most of my buyers bought at high rates and using AirDNA we were pretty spot on for the numbers and we were successful in being profitable.  

@Damien Davis - I bought most of my properties when I had a W2 job. 

Investors/Wholesalers are great, that is agreed, and is how I bought my duplex.  

I was always wanted to invest more; Wish I bought more property 4 years ago.

I just bought them last year.

I bought and am wanting to get an appraisal for a single family home being used as a rooming house.

Just bought my first rental in Indy last year and wanted to start my airbnb business.

There was an STR boom when many people bought homes here thinking they could have passive income, but that is not the case here as much as it is in places like Asheville (which is still seasonal, but not as much).

I bought a brand new in the box $285 microwave off Facebook marketplace today for $35.  

Hello Everone .I just bought a duplix for 281K in pensacola 2 months ago , Is it the norm to pay around $3200 on a policy ?
