Tampa has a lot of draws, to name a few is Beach, Boating, Golf, Casino, Intl Airport/Biz Travel, Busch Gardens, NFL/NHL/MLB, Concerts/Festivals, and more.I would say Sarasota is a submarket of Tampa but has its own attributes as well. 

Please tell me you are frickin kidding....This is the stupidest thing I have read on the internet today.Tenants have the right to have their owner political views that differ from yours.

He claims they are verifiable online and that I should be comfortable doing business over the phone and internet.

When traveling, the internet access was indispensable.

I have my cable, internet, and home phone (landline) through Comcast.

I've come up with these key features:- Internet (a given)- Washer/dryer- Pet friendly- King bed- EV charging (?)

If you do go with an LLC, make sure an attorney provides it specific to you (not downloaded from the internet), that teh attorney will defend it in court, that you jave an operatiing agreement and that you follow said operating agreement. 

There's no set amount and no stranger on the internet can tell you what should work for you. 

@Wayne Brooks this is a very old one.. there was a guy in 'Colorado who had a huge internet presence and had the same deal... he got indicted and put out of business maybe someone will recall his name... when he was going big.. you would see 5 to 10 craigs list ads all saying the same thing we buy notes.. then you talk to the individual and they knew nothing about the business and read from a script..

Sometimes you can talk directly to the owners.Use the Internet - Websites can show you houses that are being sold because the owners couldn't pay their bills or are in other kinds of trouble.Check Public Records - Look at official papers to see if a property owner is behind on taxes or other bills, which could mean they need to sell fast.Study the Market - Learn about how much houses in that area usually sell for and how much you could sell it for after you fix it up.Be Careful - Make sure you investigate the property fully to see if there are any legal problems or money owed on it.By using these steps together, you can find properties that might be a good investment because they need work or are being sold at a lower price than usual.Kind regards,
