The description states the property is "ready for rehab and development".

I'm also in FL and am a RE investor (STR/MTR/LTR), developer, and just love RE and the freedom it brings.

McKinney and Princeton have been growing a lot and it is a good place to invest, but it is always related to what you are looking to achieve in a rental investment, appreciation or cash flow.At this time that area does not offer a big cash flow and due to the amount of development going on there, rental demand has declined a bit.In any case you have to make an analysis case by case.

When it comes to analyzing properties, I’ve developed a specific checklist to make sure the home fits both resident needs and operational goals:Square Footage: Ideally, at least 2,000 sq. ft. to ensure enough living space for residents and staff.No Stairs or Pools: It reduces liability and keeps the home accessible for everyone (this is just my preference).Corner Lots: I love corner lots because they often provide extra parking and outdoor space—both of which are critical for families and visitors.

We’re developers managing our own portfolio and don’t have any outside investors.

We sold a wonderful two unit STR in Depoe Bay in 2024, which generally is a no-go zone but has neighborhoods with specific commercial zoning that allows for vacation rental usages as well as a brand new development of luxury homes that allows STR usages similar to Olivia Beach in nearby Lincoln City. 

I’ve been considering working for as a acquisition manager for a  wholesaling company, as I believe it would help me develop skills in property analysis and enhance my sales abilities.

Build a strong team, prioritize cash flow, and take the time to understand the local market and regulations, especially for development projects.

Personal Circumstances: Consider your comfort level with debt and risk.

If it's not feasible due to circumstances I suppose I'll have to adjust my situation (find weekend job, move back to NJ with parents, move to a different state with, etc.)All responses are appreciated, and I am absolutely open to chatting on the phone by the way.My view on house hacking is it can be a great tool to buy a house you could not  otherwise afford, but it shouldn’t be a goal in it of itself if that makes sense and that’s not to discourage you from investing just there are alternatives such as the stock market. so I’d start by asking where you want to live, do you want to own a single family home or does it make more sense to rent in a more interesting neighborhood like Arlington, Alexandria, that’s gonna be a personal choice, Will your monthly payment actually be less than renting/how many people do you need to get in the house to afford that?
