If managed well, it can be a reliable way to build cash flow—just do your research on the local demand and regulations.

I will say, with furnished rentals, it takes time and money to fully furnish them with all the bells and whistles but it did allow me to get higher rents... only downside is, if you are out of state, it is not easy to manage remote unless you have a good property manager/company.I have personally started to transition out of STRs due to zoning/town regulations and have already unfurnished one of the apartments to turn it into a long rental for more stable residual income.

Reciprocity is key to building lasting relationships.As you look to expand into short-term rentals (STRs), research the market thoroughly, understand local regulations, and consider whether you want to handle property management yourself or hire a professional.Remember, growing a real estate portfolio takes time and persistence.

It's tricky every country has its own rules, regulations, eminent domain laws, corruption sometimes, different types of property taxes and becomes challenging even if your duel citizen.

Happy to chat @Tyler Hall - STR regulations differ from area to area, but for the most part you shouldnt have a hard time finding a place you could live in now and STR down the road.

@Justin MoyFor those who are non accredited I would check out regulation an offerings over 506b.

The skills and strategies remain similar, but you’ll need to familiarize yourself with local markets, regulations, and financing options, which can vary a lot depending on the country.

I filed a complaint with Department of Business Regulations as well as reported him to the Florida Licensing board. 

The responses from some Real Estate “professionals” in this thread explains why real estate agents and representatives wear the badge of honor of being nosey, careless, borderline illegal and non-compliant with the most basic regulations and elemental  ethics.

Is that viewed differently by the regulations being proposed?
