Makes you wonder just how many players there are in a given area.

Some of the condo communities and resorts were hit with large insurance assessments this year - a byproduct of the catastrophic storms that have plagued insurance carriers servicing coastal markets like Florida. 

I reside in Massachusetts and my boyfriend and I want to purchase a vacation home in a specific resort in Davenport FL.

I would add to that the fact that STRs here are much more accepted in the resort areas.

For someone starting out in an industry as opaque as commercial re, honest advice (aligned by indirect equity interest) on deals you are working on, and general guidance from an experienced player is worth a lot!

Then if you’re satisfied with your team I’d recommend staying in the same location if possible to continue using the same players for a while.

but for me that is a last resort action.

Its like sampling a NFL players 40 yard dash but for apartment underwriting.

Tahoe for me right now = amazing STRs with huge cash flow and appreciation (1-2 bedroom units / close to ski resorts but not high-end luxury properties) Florida for me right now = pretty decent STR with cash flow that covers the bills but not a lot more + appreciation which is pretty significant.

We love where we're at for our family and is a resort that is gated 318 acres straight to the ocean.Like others have said it's all about location and restrictions.
