I've got a lady that cleans my places for free.  

I'm in the Tampa Bay area, which to me was one of the best places in FL for both real estate investing and amenities/attractions.

By offering smaller, more affordable options for solo travelers or couples, you could potentially attract more bookings year-round.I think it's worth considering the property management route.

To make the deal attractive to your relative I would recommend determining a loan duration of not more than 10 years with the last payment being a lump sum. 

This can make it a more attractive market for real estate investors looking for good value.3. 

The portfolio seller will pitch the deal based on an attractive cap rate.

The natural reaction is to significantly cut your rate to attract business.

In that case, they just lost the deposit (also in BC) as the seller was an older lady who just wanted to sell her place.

I’m doubtful they will get their price, or that local rents would make it attractive to rent it.The owners already moved out of state to live with family and are currently unemployed so I’m just going to be patient.I asked my realtor to offer them $260k cash and tell them I’ll be here to buy it with a 30 day or less closing time whenever they are ready.

What type of tenants will it attract, and how easy will it be to find tenants?
