Hey Renee,I already have my ticket for the Lifestyles event, but thanks for offering.

Hasn't been in many many years. 15+ at least.To make matters worse there are very few flights out of the reading airport either.

Word of caution; be wary of anyone implying something is a free meal ticket.

My first suggestion would be: buy a plane ticket and get over there to check 'em out.

@Jon Lee my buddy called me the other day and said the hot ticket is a house in Vegas for rentals because of the new football team coming in.

Additionally not inspecting or accounting for bigger ticket expenditures like (HVAC, flooring, roof, plumbing, electrical, foundation, and appliances) will reduce your profits the fastest.

I would recommend that you focus on the big ticket items.

@Dave Lloyd has the correct approach, although the general "rule of thumb" on BP is the 50% rule, where you subtract 50% of monthly income to account for expenses.Don't forget to set aside a percentage for CapEx (big ticket repairs). 

For example leave out Haiti, Cuba, Puerto Rico, etc. legal ownership1031 exchange with US property 1031 saleProperty taxesProperty types as follows:Ocean frontOcean view- one block offOcean view- hill viewNext to tourist areasNear tourist areasWithin 2 miles of tourist area within golf cart range1st world constructionSwimming pool and verandaHurricane constructionDirect flights from?

If flights are $500, hotel $200, a couple meals out, rental car/uber, on top of all the other costs of owning rentals, that significantly burdens profit.
