@Cindi Short I'll definitely shoot you a message when I'm in town.

I've reached out on the forums a couple of times and when I get a response I also get a comment on my musical career.

I purchased a “duplex” last year using cash from a private lender with intentions of doing a cash out refinance shortly after.

Long story short, my wIfe and I have flipped two houses in three years, so we’ve been bitten by the bug.

Plenty of us on here would do that, we are all short of deals in Memphis.Given you have no money or experience working under someone skilled with their money is the safest way to start.

Has anyone tried applying to become a legal short term rental in Miami Beach?

lol) Lots of questions, I'll try to keep the answers short: How do I find specific utility costs for my area so I can properly analyze deals?

. -- Short/medium term low cost of living and long term passive income.--  Pursue art full time within the next 3-7 years. 

There is a deal available to us as we speak which I will get into shortly, but I feel it is unusual in the REI sense a would like to see if I can get some guidance on it.Where I am seeking help and/or advice here is in determining what to do first.

You could ask for a higher deposit for the property to allocated for the cost that would be incured for a leasing with a higher turnover.Overall, Can you sleep at night with the decision that has been made with the property and your business for the short and long term?
