We are regretting moving out of state, and plan to head back soon.

Jackson hit many good points on the head.

This probably seems attractive but at the same time if it stays unpermitted it can be head aches along the way and if i were to ever sell in future run into the same sort of problems. 

It does look like interest rates are headed lower in the future with the expected timeline of the next 12 months so given that you may want to consider looking into a HELOC now to tap into the equity that you have for down payments and then refinance as rates come lower but if you want to connect and talk through in more detail, I’d love that. send me a DM.

With your wife’s connections there, you’ll also have a head start in building a local network.Beyond Orlando, consider expanding your search to areas like Ocala and Sebring.

Best to prepare before doing so, so that you can meet with (or terminate) your existing PM, view your rehab, and meet with the new PM(s) and contractor(s) before finalizing things and heading back out. 

It's ok to not have it figured out, but you should ideally have a general sense of direction of where you're headed. 

I wanted to give them the benefit of doubt and give them another chance..And this Datazappp guy Robert told me he doesn't want to do business with me no more..If I want to give you money for your services and you turn me down..And I let the last business deal fly over my head..So Why you in business?...

I think with the economy the way its headed there is going to be a need for more affordable housing.  

@Travis Biziorek you don't have to deal with the owers that have their heads in the sand about market changes and just expect their rents to increase every year.
