@Bill Brandt my brother just bought a three-bedroom two-bath in Fort Walton Beach it's right beside Destin and just a five-minute Drive that's starting to be the next option to be close to Destin

The bigger ones, are basically not answering their phones, or tell you they will call you back, but they have a big back log, and someone will get back in a week or so.So I have a huge tree branch sitting on half of my roof, with leaves and smaller branches so thick I can't even find the branch that poked through the roof, and the other side of the branch was sitting on an overhead high voltage power line, strained to the max. 

Everyone we have networked with says we must have skin in the game to do any kind of joint ventures/learn from them or even join a team, which we would love to do, however we basically gave our life savings to a family member to deal with a health battle.

I agree, investing here in my backyard is ideal, especially for my first few times because I want to be able to get intimate with the end-to-end process and ideally be close enough to drive to my properties within a short time.

Say 15 minutes driving, maybe 30 by transit, which I'm willing to do. 

I laugh every time I drive by it.

I have been logging some serious driving for dollars time and i have a list of approx 43 properties that i have mailed to in the past month.

We could get an extra $1k monthly without blinking, and there are 3 other ways to add solid income on the property after the 1k (boat storage is super desirable, coin op laundry as tenants drive 15 minutes out of town for laundry currently, small RV park or storage).

The thing I like about the mix of the 3 parks I found is that 1 park is done- the cash flow is steady, expenses are low, maintenance is low, and it's basically all owner-occupied.

I was clear to him that during the tour of the room and house that the parking is street parking, no parking on drive way (as it'll block cars parked in garage), and informing him that which streets he could park.
