If your rent is on the higher end (over $1500 per month) and you are doing a kitchen, I would spend the bit extra to get new cabinets.

If you get caught doing a STR in areas they are not allowed, you will most likely get a warning at first, and then they can fine you if you keep renting out short term. 

It seems like a great time to buy and rent in cities like Davenport, Winter Haven, Haines City, and many more.

The real estate website expects Toledo home sales to increase by 14 percent next year, because the lure of low-cost housing has sparked a surge of buyers.Both buyers looking for a place to live and investors planning to renovate and rent find Toledo attractive, according to the real estate website.

But I ensure to run the sold and rent comps for my fellow investor clients so that they can determine cash flow.

The extra hassle isn't often worth the false belief that rent is guaranteed.  

Rents are high compared to property values so you can get good rent flow. 

HI Joseph,You can always start off by house hacking meaning you live in one UNIT or ROOM and renting out the other vacant units/rooms to offset your monthly mortgage payment.There are several ways to run and make sure you are maximizing your rental income while keeping your living expense as low as possible.

Also track what properties are renting for and what areas are in demand.

You're entirely at the mercy of the condo board, which could completely restrict your ability to rent at any time.
