For me Smokies, Beach homes, Mountains...the traditional vacation homes are out of question.

Out at the beaches there is an entire complex that I am about 90% sure is dedicated to Section 8 housing.

We have lots of tenants and buyers relocating from places like Long Beach ;) and they are willing to pay a little more than the local guys like @Mark Hughes - Personally, I have pulled out of multi-family (Flipping them only now) and am pulling similar returns on my furnished rentals.

I'm not an expert or a lawyer but I believe that may have been the case which established a legal precedent which was repeated soon after in LA, Miami Beach, San Fran, Santa Barbara, Santa Monica, Las Vegas, Denver, Boston, Paris, Barcelona, Amsterdam, London, Berlin, etc., etc. etc. in the early 2010's then spreading form major to smaller cities and towns all over the world during the past decade. 

I'm a new investor here in Miami looking todo business from West palm beach down to Key West.

Combine that with some great fishing, boating, beaching and just about every store you can think of close by and you have a very unique town.One setback is the city is discussing Single family housing as rentals and their policy given the housing shortage we are in.lots of full time residents have been complaining of the parties and turnover vacation rentals bring into our nice quiet neighborhoods.

I am looking to do one in the future myself to help increase my buying power and trying to also find some solid resources on the subject for my clients and a community of "Hopportunity" investors in the Norfolk and Virginia Beach area. 

Hello BiggerPockets family,
I hope everyone is well amongst all the "new normalness". I want to go door to door, but find myself making more calls these days. This makes things so impersonal and it's a major turn off...

I'm looking to make my first purchase and am considering Jacksonville Florida and Myrtle Beach.

I'm doing research for our next STR location in a beach area.
