The spacious rooms boast beautiful hardwood floors throughout.

Beautiful weather, outdoor activities, and a vibrant culture add an extra layer of appeal for both residents and investors.But Florida isn't a one-size-fits-all market.

* What are some factors to consider when identifying these hot spots?

Brewerytown and East Passyunk could also be worth exploring.Big projects like Bellwether can boost neighborhoods, but they often take time to show results, so don’t count on them as a main factor.

@Vincent WeselakIt’s a good idea to get an estimate for your insurance costs upfront since this can vary based on the property type and location, and it’s a key factor in evaluating your cash flow. 

This will help you understand the qualifying requirements, key factors to consider when purchasing, and how to assess whether a property might be a good investment at first glance.

Focus on cities with favorable price-to-rent ratios, population growth, and employment trends, such as Des Moines, Oklahoma City, and Charlotte, while considering factors like landlord-friendliness and property taxes.

But, in the end, a HELOC is great to just have in case that beautiful day comes where I get a great opportunity.

Ignore the $1,250 per month because that's your cost of housing, if you didn't pay that on the home you'd have paid that in rent so that's a non factor. 

Other factors as well of course: DTI, the LTV, primary residence vs investment property, etc.
