I have recently signed up a new property manager for my short term rental in Santa Rosa Beach, Florida.

Can I get a change of use variance to make it a LEGAL multifamily or short term rental?

So long story short, you're good.

Short Term Rentals take a lot of time and energy.

Someone retired or a younger person receiving social security and leads a quiet, sober life?

Many thanks,RoseSomething else to consider is that many people who are able to quit their W2 job through real estate in a short timeframe (3 to 5 years) are doing so by replacing it or at least supplementing their income with active investing activities such as wholesaling or flipping.

@Michael Hayes you should discuss this with the S8 office handling the inspection.Most HAP contracts require a landlord to supply the fridge & stove, NOT the tenant.Violations of the HAP contract may lead to rent abatements and even banning of the landlord from S8 program (usually only with that specific Housing Agency).

Hey Laurens, The short answer is that will drastically vary from builder to builder and it will. 

I have a VA that does our social media that I pay $3 and I have one that does lead gen that we pay $4 an hour and my property manager I pay $6 an hour.

I'm actively looking for an investment property to use as a short term rental.
