There are plenty of older homes on the market that do not have closets.You need 2 egresses (including 1 that goes outside) such as a door or window, size about 70sqft (local codes may differ), ceilings at least 7ft high, and it cannot be a walk-through passage.As always, your local codes may be different.

Hey GaryI manage about 65 units in FL and I broker for STR buyers in this market, and some do self manage.Obviously the ones who choose us for management, we can assist with all of those items, but the ones who self manage do so by building a team. 

I started my real estate career in 2014 working in marketing at PPR Note Co. with Dave Van Horn.

If anybody local (especially other wholesalers) or anybody else even out of my market wants to connect, feel free to reach out!
