You need to be hyper local - I'd go to brokerages and hand out sweets (or fruit!)

I work heavily with investors and honestly, 70% never buy and do waste our time, however that is the nature of being an agent..doing what others won't because most of the 18,000+ licensed agents (just in Central FL.) are looking for the low hanging fruit and right now, there is plenty of that. 

I think the lowest hanging fruit would be the popcorn ceilings. 

I definitely believe your work ethic will translate over and start to bear continual fruit for you.

Most are after the Low Hanging Fruit and screw the owner.

Eating our own fruit, is a big kick.  200 pineapples in another 12 months.  200 Coconut trees producing in another 5 years. 

Renting a unit in a multi may not be as attractive to vacationers unless your market is conducive to short-term stays or other conventions.Ideally, a four-plex in a vacation area can be used nicely as a mix of Airbnb and annual so you don't put all your eggs in one basket.

Actually I do have the ecobee thermostat so this is a low hanging fruit.

I kinda feel like all my eggs are in one basket and I don’t want the bottom to fall out! 

@Will Gaston- I'm not telling you anything you don't know but there's very little low hanging fruit out there and you have to work to get them in different ways.
