I personally lived in/throughout Brevard for many years and the real estate market there is quite good at the moment.Just out of curiosity, what is the interest in Daytona Beach, of all places, since you are inquiring specifically about that market?

If you don't respond, they're off to the next opportunity.1-2 days may be too long, especially in a competitive market.

You really do not want to add to an IRA that has a SEPP in place.An IRA holding real estate is treated no differently than an IRA holding other investments when it comes to this program - other than you needing to manage your liquidity requirements a bit differently to meet the distribution schedule.

The “tales” of nothing down/seller subordinates “down payment” done successfully almost always hide the most important information - that the buyer either provided additional collateral (such as real property owned “free and clear”, a certificate of deposit in an amount greater than the down payment required, or the buyer is financially strong enough that part of the financing was in effect a personal loan or line of credit. 

Usually treaties tax the sale of real estate to the country in which the property is located, so there likely won't be an issue, but it's always a good idea to confirm.

I would suspect less than 1% made it in real estate in under 10 years. 

For a “moderate “ risk private real estate deal knowledgeable, experienced investor want to see a believable return of 12% +.  

I actually moved from Florida to Columbus for the real estate.

Most real buyers will have agents and will put it in their offer that the payment for the buyer agent come from the settlement funds.

In my case, I have residential rentals in one LLC, commercial properties in another, self storage in a third, and my real estate company operates in a fourth.
