I could keep compounding this to live in a 500 to 600 etc..My first house was move in ready and I did really enjoy that convenience but am not afraid to get my hands dirty.I am a big fan of Westchase and would find it tough to leave the neighborhood based on school zone, type of neighbors/homes, and still located within 30 min of DT Tampa and DTSP.I wouldn’t say I am a real estate investor yet, but I am very money conscious.

I have made a conscious decision to leave my construction career in NYC and pick up and move to Saint Petersburg, FL to pursue a career in real estate.I plan on buying my first deal a year from now after I’m settled and scope out surrounding neighborhoods.

I previously showed the basement to a couple and the woman expressed concern that they were very energy conscious and didn't want to subsidize the upstairs tenant if they wanted to keep the heat at 70 deg all winter.

Man, it feels like such a whirlwind since my wife and I decided to make a conscious effort to figure out how to retire early.

More inventory, lower down payment, and less competition compared to the MF space. 2) Adding any Airbnb strategy to MF or house + casita can pump the cashflow up dramatically. 3) Investors with deeper pockets are exchanging from other assets, paying all cash, or putting more down to achieve positive cashflow that eludes more budget conscious investors.

Two evictions in the last three years and her income is 60% of the rent.Now, every part of my conscious as an investor and landlord is telling me absolutely and categorically NO.

Hopefully this stream of consciousness makes sense...thanks in advance!

The homes kitchen, bath, flooring, roof and entire exterior were remodeled while staying cost conscious.

Since we are trying to run a marathon, I try to be really conscious with the effort I spent analyzing each property.I do revisit my strategy after about a month or so.

If the property were offering "green" amenities and you showed how these systems work well for the renter and the environment, you can probably charge a little more and get more environmentally conscious guests. you could include stats too to show to the low carbon footprint of their stay.
