I’m curious to see what other investors (ideally from South Florida) say because it truly does seem like there’s no good deals down here. 

If you get someone who will talk to you then you take the next steps - asking a title company to pull an O&E to check for liens, determine the market value (you can pay a broker to do a "broker price opinion" (BPO) if you don't have access to the tools or information.

If you were to invest locally, the property would likely need lots of work and probably not be in an ideal area.  

Ideally, I'm looking to house hack an undervalued duplex/triplex with a 5% FHA 203k loan most likely in Kissimmee that will generate net worth + modest rental income.

Ideally someone who has done sales in the past and enjoys the challenge.  

I have never bought assets from him as I deal more on non performing but his group (colonial) is a legitimate organization.Of course you always need to do due diligence on every note to purchase.

If you can get a 4 unit and a basement, that would be ideal and create major cash flow and equity creation, plus you can not worry about a property manager and boost your yield.Cap rates came all the way down to 3% (or below!)

I think ideally she would want something newer and more modern that we could move into right away.
