This is where your focus should be, not buying section 8 rentals or focusing solely on increasing your portfolio by 2x, 3x etc.

Hi,We focus on old building rehabs for renovation.

Our buy box specifically focuses on vacation destination accommodations - including boutique motel/hotel, campgrounds, treehouses, cabins, etc.   

Initially, I was focused on multifamily properties, but after doing more research and considering that I will be making Florida my primary residence, I believe that house hacking or short-term rentals (STR) may be the ideal route for me.i still will own my Southern California home; shift it to secondary.  

Also, focus on 2 years of job/income stability.Class D Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, all cashflow with little, maybe even negative, relative rent & value appreciationVacancy Est: 20%+ should be used to cover nonpayment, evictions & damages.Tenant Pool: majority will have FICO scores under 560 (almost 30% probability of default), little to no good tradelines, lots of collections & chargeoffs, recent evictions.

Thanks Jeremy.I'm going to leave my w-2 job and focus on my health and shaking off the burnout I've been feeling. 

We have been attacking it via focus on expanded ancillary services.

Fort Lauderdale has higher purchase prices and nightly rates, but Pompano has had an influx of investment and continues to improve, specifically by the beach. 

You also have to be super detail-oriented, focused on continuous improvement regarding the property and guest experience, very in-touch with what it's like to be a guest at the property (and a cleaner of it as well), and focused on technological tools and opportunities.
