Our place in Destin is booked out a solid with 80% on AirBNB, 10% direst listings and 10% VRBO.

With no income tax, business friendly regulations and a variety of housing options to choose from, it's an attractive destination for budding real estate investors.

It was named as #1 destination on the rise for 2016 by TripAdvisor and recognized as one of the top beaches in the world.Please don't be scared for what you see at the news, its true that we have some crime issues, but that horror crimes only happens if you get involved somehow with "the narcos" or drug dealers, otherwise if you have in mind owning a great property, a few steps from the beach, and renting it while you're not using it (with a estimated ROI from 8-14% annually) 

Remember, in real estate and in life, the journey is just as important as the destination.

Perhaps they might be the same between PCB and Destin.  

Less debt is always a positive when your path gets you to the destination you want. 

@Liz Boer If you're going to be living in LA during the week and going home on Fridays, AirBNB your LA property if it's close to any of the tourist destinations, depending on the property you can do Friday, Saturday, and Sundays at $200 per day and get you to over $31K to chip into that $50k target.

You will arrive at your destination at the appropriate time and sleep better at night if the economy gets rough in Texas. 

Torrance isn't a "vacation destination", but it is:-reasonably priced (you can get a 3 bedroom house for $250/night)- close to the beach or well located(West Torrance is less than a mile which is technically closer than some parts of MDR ;)  or close to the freeway and 20 minutes from all of the beach cities, MDR, Culver and a little more to SM and DTLA)-clearly regulated and allows for AirBnb (from what I can see MDR and the beach cities make it hard to have an airbnb via disallowing them altogether, not having regulations posted at all which makes it hard to understand what the risks are or requiring owner occupancy)I have a former coworker that cash flows more than $2500 a month in Gardena.
