However, as an international investor, I have choices and I'll put my money where it's treated best.

If there is time and money available that is the opportunity to make a choice, but that usually involves INCREMENTAL upgrades like painting a room or replacing the flooring in a room or 2. 

Making the choice to partner was a no-brainer for me because she likes to do the things that I don’t like to do and vice versa.

On listing side, again was fully compliant but now just adding 1 more disclosure and agreement to it all drawing it all out in "crayola" as seller defines THERE choice, that it is there choice, and most importantly the extra clarity on dual agency because THAT is biggest impact I see coming, a whole lot MORE dual agency. 

They are a poor choice in most situations. 

We would be so grateful for any input, experience, or recommendations from homeowners or agents regarding what would be the preferred choice for 1) attracting rental guests in the short term, 2) retaining value for resale and not looking dated in 10 years, 3) protecting ourselves from accidents.  

Hi Daniel, as a Miami-based Realtor who works with investors on new/pre-construction purchases, as far as location is concerned, I agree with your choices of Miami Beach and Downtown Miami.  

It's a perfect example of how the most attractive applicant can be the worst choice.

Due to the urgent situation, I have no choice but to proceed with the septic work in order to obtain the necessary permit

Im 23 and will continue to work until 30-35, and by then I would be able to either continue working BY CHOICE rather by necessity.
