@Rebecca Knox Thanks for this info.

I was thinking, should I invest in RE or continue to save?

Unfortunately I don’t know Floridays specifically but hopefully my info will help give you general idea of the current state of the area near Disney.Good luck!

That's very good info. 

I have listened to info about 1031's before and they did not touch on this point.

And when you account for appreciation that doesn't appear to be changing in the next few years, you could lose more by waiting a year for the "best deal" instead of paying $10-$20k more right now and starting to save from your house-hacking venture. 

How much can you save each month? 

Underwrite extra conservatively upfront and you’ll save the headache down the road.Best of luck!

It's saved me multiple times. 

.), but any info you can provide is appreciated...I have lots of experience operating LTRs, a bit of experience running a STR, and no experience operating a MTR--but I'm thinking about trying it out!
