I was wondering if any real estate professionals like you can prove this to be a good move in terms of investing.

I guess what I'm asking is how optimistic are you on Cape Coral medium to long term.

Being a Portuguese citizen doesn't give you any advantage whatsoever when it comes to buying and/or operating short-term rentals in Portugal.2.

I have a particular interest in islands, as my long-term goal is to captain a catamaran and offer tours for snorkeling, sunset cruises, etc.I'm interested in places that offer great ROI without being overly expensive.

Make sure it explicitly explains the process for termination if you are unhappy with their services, especially if they violate the terms of your agreement.3.

Long term focus is what will make this so so worth it. 

@Don KonipolSo we have a short term loan with someone and as part of the loan they paid all the interest upfront (12 month loan), loan is maturing and they have extension options (for a fee) - they asked about the extensions and we said it was X amount for the extension and you would also start paying the monthly interest as well.They flipped out and am like what do you mean I have to pay interest ?

I'm leaning towards long-term rentals (LTR) but am also eager to dive into fix-and-flip projects to generate quick capital.I'm deeply committed to achieving financial freedom through passive income, and I believe real estate is the perfect avenue to reach this goal.

We have long-term goals in real estate but right now don't want to grow beyond the two rentals.

I'd recommend prioritizing Airbnb-friendly municipalities in Florida in case you need to go the short-term route, which tends to give you a higher monthly income.
