I'm Sumedha, a real estate enthusiast from San Jose, CA, on a journey towards financial freedom through property investing.

As long as I'm cash flowing, then I just slowly raise the rents over time.

Just treating every home like it is your own, and seeing the home through the eyes of a guest.

I lived there for a year and a half and now rent it out with a positive cash flow.

They also have an awesome self-service tour schedule signup page that is included through your listing.

You'll live a much happier life.it's just as simple a matter as those who have been through it before and paid to stay, aren't as afraid when they get the first notice that they're going to be in the street as someone with no experience with the court/eviction system.

They have failed to renew my entities with the Secretaries of State multiple times, have billed me wrong amounts, and GREATEST OF ALL, have cost my business ~$50K in cumulative TAX PENALTIES due to negligence in filing for a tax extension, failing to walk me through my tax filings and needed payments, and failing to file an abatement promptly.

ITs going to depend on a lot of factors but just jumping into STR "around the country" (i.e. potentially very far from yourself) is going to be challenging - property management fees are going to eat up a lot and its hard to cash flow as it is with current rates/prices.Most people would start with LTRs as its generally good for the "first investment" to be more of a learning experience and chalking up a lot of mistakes - so keeping $ amounts low, leverage conservative and the investment as "vanilla" as possible is generally good advice

The time a tenant pays through Avail until the rent payment hits my bank has remained the same length of time (3-4 days).

Florida is a Judicial foreclosure state, so you'll have to go through the court system if you want to foreclosure.
