Liondesk is also popular.

Absentee Owners have been popular for a long time, and are apparently still somewhat effective (people are still mailing to them) but they are getting multiple offers to buy their home.

@David Paez Hi David, you have probably seen that Lakeland, FL is a popular investment city these days, some of the reasons for this is that Polk County/Lakeland is ideally located centrally to Orlando and Tampa, we have many warehouses strategically located throughout Polk County, to include warehouses for Amazon, IKEA, RoomsToGo, PepsiCo and Publix which make this area strategic for distribution throughout Florida, something else worth mentioning Amazon is building one of their major Air Hubs at the Lakeland Airport, they will be taking over 47 acres to service their planes, not to mention Publix is headquartered in Lakeland, and we also have a large presence for Coca Cola bottling and Juices in Auburndale, FL which is about 10-20 min from Lakeland.Lakeland is also home to the yearly SUN 'n FUN held in April, which is Florida's largest annual convention, which spans over 6 days on 2200 acres, and it has been recorded to have had a $64 Million direct and indirect economic impact on the I-4 corridor (From Tampa to Orlando). https://www.flysnf.org/about/I have been investing since 2002, and my investments are mainly in Lakeland, Bartow, Auburndale and Winter Haven, I also like Lake Wales and Haines City, there is good population growth, and high demand for workers in these areas, of course keep in mind we are in a pretty descent economy right now, whatever you look at, make sure the numbers make sense, and if you purchase something, leave enough room for an economic downturn, I see many outside investors purchasing at higher than normal prices, because the prices seem cheap compared to other markets close to Lakeland, but this can become a trap if the market shifts in a negative direction.I would be glad to help you with your search

Reading through the various posts, it appears that the IRA LLC is a pretty popular option.

What popular rental sites have you checked to get a good idea of current market rents?

This is not a popularity contest and losing tenants is not something you should worry about too much or you give them the upper hand.

You can purchase a wide variety of styles in the glue down version — even a textured wood plank which is very popular today in home design.

I've been recently looking at an investment opportunity where I have the potential to invest in a condo right outside of a popular travel destination.
