The target property is zoned C-2, so we can do airbnb/tourist house by right, but want to do B&B, special occasion events, and outdoor music.

Just the appreciation, mortgage pay down, and the tax benefits should offset any downturn in the market if that should occur.

I am going to be at their Orlando event on October 22 & 23rd hope to see you there if not no worries I am available for a call, just message me would love to answer any of your questions. 

We rent to a decent number of younger, single women and I always recommend to them when they bring this up that they either consider not doing it, or maintaining the financial lease in their name only with the boyfriend as a resident at the pleasure of the authorized tenant - this way, when the inevitable domestic police call occurs, she has a greater chance of not being put out of her own home by demonstrating that he's only there at her pleasure and that she's the responsible party on the lease.

We are trying to rebuttal the appraisal and I would hate to sell because after appraisal it'll cashflow great. looking for tips or referrals in the event the appraisal doesn't go as planned.

Under the "network" tab you will find events.

Many flood zones don't flood and during a major weather event, plenty areas flood that are not even close to a flood zone so it would depend on how desperate and the numbers and flood history.

However, they stated that IF they were to do this, then we would be responsible for moving all the furniture out of the unit to accommodate this, and that we would also be responsible for any damages that occurs to the new flooring from date of installation to our final move-out date, "whenever that would be" (which we know is tentatively 09/23).Upon doing my research on vinyl plank, I learned that it is easy to damage it, if we were to accidentally drop something on it and that - more worryingly - damage usually happens when furniture is being moved. 

Another thing to consider depending on where you are in life is a life insurance policy to cover your mortgage payment in the unfortunate event something happens to you so your wife/family can pay off your assets.
