I agree that Tampa is not the worst (yet) but I believe we are trending in that direction.

We are a company of investors for investors so we would be excited to help you - whether speaking to RE agent, getting you connected locally with networking opportunities, putting you on a series of helpful emails that help you know what to look for in PM, self-managing, etc.

We are looking for what to do after that.

It is also helpful because we are Realtors and real estate investors and it provides a cushion for months that are leaner than others.

We are looking into partnering, but before that can happen I’m trying to see how can we go about the renovation do we have to use our own money, heloc, or etc.

We are all here for the money trust me I’m not that handsome!

- If so, 1031 into something bigger and easier to manage and then when you pass, the inheritor receives your property(s) at a stepped up basis - subject to Inheritance Tax limits.Otherwise, sell one every 1-5 years when you need the cash, so you can plan expenses to offset capital gains.14 properties - presume these had to have been single families.Oh, I'm modifying the original post to mention leaning toward creating a trust which we manage..so we would own very little yet manage the trust which owned investments and such.Here is what I understand/misunderstand (better or worse) on moving every 2 years (as we are open to that albeit pia.) • Multi-unit would only support a %, so a quad would 25% and prorated over all years of ownership....witteling advantage to not worth the effort. • Single unit properties get pro-rated.

The voters in Red States would never allow a national rent control.

I’ve developed a Comprehensive Investor Report (CIR) for a property in Palm Coast, FL, designed to be transformed into a luxury rental asset while serving as the foundation for a scalable asset management strategy.Here’s a quick snapshot of the deal:Property: Red Birch Lane, Palm Coast, FLCurrent Value: $350,000+Mortgage Balance: $165,000Current Equity: $185,000Investment Required: $177,500 (for luxury upgrades and optimization)Projected Monthly Rent: $4,500 with 2% annual increasesTarget ROI: Full 1.5x ROI for investors achieved in 9 yearsLuxury Features: Smart home automation, designer finishes, professional-grade kitchen appliances, and more.I’ve also structured a capital distribution plan with a waterfall approach:8% Preferred Return for investors.Full Return of Capital to investors before profit splits.Post-ROI, a 20/80 split (Investor/Management) ensures long-term alignment.

We’ve worked together for about 2 years now, and he is focused on the operations side of the business.There are many solid sponsors and operators in this asset class, some newer than us, and some older – and quite a bit of new money coming into this space (part of this is where we are in the market cycle, and other asset classes being overpriced like apartment buildings).I’ve personally had several conversations with @Jefferson Lilly (and met him at a conference), and he knows the space well.
