Welcome to A Skeptical Dude’s Take on Real Estate: a frank, hopefully insightful, dive into real estate and financial markets.

Even if it's a nice home, without being able to produce the income your expecting, it's likely going to be a losing investment. 

Hope this helps and good luck!

., I am hoping to go in next week and speak with someone at Frost and also Independent Bank.

We are hoping to use some of the flip profit for a rental in the next few years as well.1.

Hopefully one of you, seasoned pros might be interested in lending some advice.

Good afternoon,Hoping someone can lend a hand here.I am currently in the midst of getting a new homeowner's insurance policy for a LTR that I own in Cape Coral, FL... as my previous insurer is pulling their coverage in the state of Florida. 

We're hopeful an investor or large family will enjoy it next.Thanks so much

Hope this helps! 

Generally, here's the rule I follow with stuff like this: If every house on the block has a garage and you remove it from your house, that's an expected facet of the home that is lost and you will objectively lose value when comparing to another house from a "market value" perspective; especially from an appraiser's point of view.
