Keep in mind, the numbers are not necessarily spot on, but at least you'll get a ballpark.One thing I like to do is call the numbers on For Rent signs in the same neighborhood and ask what the rent is. 

,Spot on!  

the 2nd association it resonates is the highly consumption-driven society we live in. in my area (coastal, urban southern california) i'm surrounded by 2 distinct lifestyles. there's the majority: seems like 95% of the local population who are renters, driving luxury cars, sporting fancy clothes, jewelry, hairdos, etc but obviously living paycheck to paycheck as exemplified by hardly a day somebody or the other is spotted  getting their car repo'ed by a camera crew. the rarer are the landlords, who in this area seem to be of mostly asian demographics (chinese, koreans, japanese) who live obviously very frugally: old 80s model sedan, oldfashion business cloths, always eating simple meal from home, seemingly never splurging $$$ other than into expanding their portfolio), my observance is relatively very few landlords in the area own relatively huge portfolios, each.with the advent of these infomercials and the internet (ie, BP) more and more people want to get a 'piece of the REI pie' and more power to them. there does seem to be this dream of rags to riches and while its ok to dream, do most people actually expect their life to turn around like that, as portrayed in most of the infomercials or even in the everyday setting where the masses living paycheck to paycheck, are spending their last expendable dollars not on depositing into savings acount, but blowing $20 on scratchies etc. in summary, is my observation reminds me of my days when i worked on wall st and the 'ra trace' was so obvious with dime a dozen stock brokers makin 6fig salaries at some point but blowing it on recreational drugs apparently costing thousands of dollars a pop to the point the next week they are broke again and that $ wasnt invested but wasted.  

There had been many times prior when subway cars would sit in one spot for hours between stops on multiple occasions, due to 'police investigations' etc, often full of people including myself opening the mini windows trying to get some air in, as our breathing condensed on the glass and metallic surfaces all around.I do hope somehow the traffic control keeps up with Downtown LA's ongoing development into a megacity the likes of NYC.My hope was to move cross country for more space and higher quality of living despite both LA & NYC being such densely population areas.

@James Wise is spot on, lost of things to consider about large tree's, but I wouldn't not buy a property just because it has a large tree, it would depend on factors like the ones James mentioned & if you can get some consideration from the seller for the tree.

Sounds to me like your in a good spot to start and have no reason to quit your job until the next train is ready to leave and you have a ticket and a pocket full of money and the knowledge you will need to continue the trip. 

I've talked with the city and was able to find a vacation rental spot.

Spot on!

What would be a sweet spot in the Orlando area for 100-140k? 

Start putting it in the track at the most complicated spot ie steps.
