@Ryan Hamaker I also do investing in Tampa area and interested in hearing about your method for partnering/raising cash for down payments.

Great job on deciding that, it's not easy but fun (sometimes haha) and rewarding.Can you tell us what you've already decided to do (what method did you choose) or if you need any help with resources.Feel free to DM me with any question that you have, we have all been newbies once:)@Louisa Davis feel free to DM me too if you need any help:)

@Leah R Grier So I went and looked at the Beaumont Zoning regulations and to the best of what I read if it’s in a Historical District it says you have to pay a $20 application fee and go before the historic commission and have a public hearing with your proposal of any changes to the structure and plans and color changes, use changes, etc. the same applies to the main building, any changes must be approved by the commission.

These are the decking tiles, which really are sweet:  https://www.ikea.com/us/en/p/r... 

It would look something like this: https://www.houzz.com/photos/r...Thoughts on how this could affect resale value?

For example, if you are looking to scale your portfolio with the BRRRR method but cant find deals that are discounted, could you do upgrades to the house (new front porch, kitchen, bathrooms, extra bedroom, finished garage/basement etc)?

@Brandon Sturgill I’m not sure of the suicide method but I know that a professional environmental cleanup company serviced the property.Thanks for that thought!

At the end of the day, I find it better to be in a position where I can hold someone accountable for breaking my stuff than being a middle man between two tenants fighting over what one tenant did to another's stuff in the common area.This strategy is lucrative though, and I have seen many investors choose that method where I am based out of in San Diego.

Please connect and ping me anytime.Warm Regards,Dimas R

One of my focuses will be best methods to analyze STR deals.
