Tourist traffic usually picks up in March and April for Spring Break, but then goes back to normal until Memorial Day weekend. 

And he is able to come home earlier as well and try to miss out on the traffic.

Here's the property:$1.1 M purchase price9 units totalx4 0/1 studios (low rents for area)x1 1/1 (empty needs to be gutted and rehabbed)x4 small Retail spaces 500 SF each - (street frontage, charming area, mainly residential but on a street with some retail, theres a significant amounts of foot and auto traffic)$600k down with $500k loan (this is due to the property being mixed use and the empty spaces) for $1.1M total in.GSI is currently 60k but could potentially be 100-110kI think it could be appraised for $1.3-1.4 after it's been renovated, rents raised, and retail fully rented with long term tenants.The problem is 3/4 of the retail spaces are empty and one studio needs to be gutted and rehabbed.

The only con is that there isn't as much to do around here, since people move here to retire we lack the tourist traffic that PV, Cancun and San Miguel get.

I lived there for a year, way overpriced, too much traffic and all the restaurants are terrible.

And I'd love to know what the STR traffic is like there and more about your Indy efforts.

My in house CPA they bought a place at Oceanside out of Tillamook gab view etc.. and they have not had any problem renting it.. its in the county so I don't think there are any regulatory issues.And Seaside is closest to you and for sure that gets a ton of weekender traffic..

(I should probably stay off of those FB AirBNB forums LOL)  FWIW - we've grown our VRBO and traffic - and are creating a direct booking site, both with the thought of curbing our AirBNB dependency.  

I can search for the applicants by name and find criminal cases, civil cases, evictions, even traffic tickets.

With absolutely no traffic, that is at least a 35 minute commute.
