Feel free to message me if you want to talk more details. 

Being nearby allows you to stay hands-on—you can see, touch, and fully immerse yourself in the process.There’s a lot to learn, not just about managing rentals but also about overseeing property management companies.Handling tenants and maintenance can feel overwhelming at times, but starting with a property close to home gives you the opportunity to gain valuable experience.

If you have any questions, feel free to DM me.

I’m always looking to expand my network with like-minded individuals on here, so feel free to reach out.

Thank you @Jaycee Greene and @Hossein DaneshIn sum:- 42 apartment rental deal (land has potential to add 32 more on  two small building but that phase would be out of scope for this initial stage analysis).- Negotiated sales price $3.2 (seller financed)- 30% DP @ 7% / 20rs.

I’m based in Tampa and run Graystone Investment Group, focusing heavily on helping (out of state) investors find and manage properties here in Florida.Totally agree on the importance of understanding those short-term rental rules in Florida—each area can feel like its own little country with all the different regulations!
