. - Grand Rapids, MI- Des Moines, IA- Omaha, NE- Columbus, OH- Rochester, MN/Dubuque, IA/Driftless Area WI A few questions:  Are there any red flags with these regions? 

There are other passive options like opportunity zones, tenant in common structures or GP/LP syndications. 

I'm a realtor in Nashville and work with a lot of STR clients here also, I still think it's a great city for it as long as you buy in the right zoning. 

I am looking to get some inputs and leads on to see if any one in Fairfield County has tried Sub Dividing or Selling a duplex as independent unit which is zoned in "B".

I also was in a financial position to buy it and full renovate it for 4 months before I had to move in which was really nice, not living in a construction zone the entire time.

I've read here that they aren't but reading the city's webpage seems to indicate that they may be allowed depending on what "zone" it's in, and some limit on number of STRs per development?? 

First thing you need to do is make sure it is zoned properly.

Florida is technically a red state, but like most red states the major metropolitan areas lean blue. 

So here's the bill:1 Service call (July Special) 1.00 $100.00 $30.00(30.00%)No Tax $70.002 Labor (defrost and clean condenser coil) 2.00 $100.00 $20.00(10.00%)No Tax $180.003 Co2 Coil Cleaning 1.00 $25.00 $1.25(5.00%)$1.43(6%)$25.184 R-410a Refrigerant 2.00 $65.00 $0.00 $7.80(6%)$137.80Subtotal (without tax) $403.75Taxes $9.23Grand Total ($) $412.98As an aside, the fact that vendor added refrigerant is a red flag to me, as it's my understanding that cooling systems generally don't lose refrigerant unless there's a leak, in which case the leak needs to be addressed.TL;DR: AC not cooling.

After my initial research, I think I might want to try looking into a rehab/flip or rehab/rent (buying fixer uppers in established neighborhoods, ideally where I can eventually build an ADU on the lot,) and down the line move towards lots zoned for multifamily properties on large lots (to maximize the real estate, or have off half the lot and build another dwelling on the new lot.)
