This makes it easier for investors to enter the short-term rental market without requiring a massive upfront investment.

Very interested in the Alpharetta/ Milton area so please let me know if you have any investment opportunities in that area.

It could make you money so that you could buy your first investment property.

My friend and I have a brokerage and we all sell houses to clients but our main focus is personal investments and building multifamily at the moment.

@Michael Upson is this for your primary residence or an investment property?

Looking to increase investment portfolio.

This increase puts downward pressure on both rental rates and property values.Rising insurance costs: Skyrocketing insurance premiums are further squeezing cash flow and increasing operational costs for property owners.Short-term outlook: With the current market conditions, Florida real estate is unlikely to yield strong returns over the next 1-2 years, making it less favorable for immediate investment.

I've read Michael Blank's book: Financial Freedom with Real Estate Investing and have started to do some research on markets I want to invest in. 

However, I have a feeling they might be hesitant to provide one.Since this is my first out of state investment, I'd likely walk away if the tenant turns out to be difficult.

I am trying to figure out if it's good idea to invest in that area.
