., I already have some rental properties in Orlando that I bought 4 years ago but now the market here is too high and the ROI is low so i have to get a way from Orlando in order to find a good cap rate.Jose Rueda, mostly I search for SFH cause it's very hard to find multi family but it is also an option for me and yes, you right the prices in north FL much cheaper than the south.Raymond Mazzie, Thank you very much for your offer but Tallahassee is too far for me.I'll be happy to get more opinions reg' my postThank you all

Hey, I got 30+ comments and 10 or so direct messages of interest in my first apartment, an owner occupied duplex. On one hand, the unit is coming off being occupied by smokers, so its not a taj mahal, on the other han...
