At least once we get a rental up and kicking.We dont have any of these, but if you get into SFH's up over 2500 or so and it might be a different story, but in the $1,200-$1,500 range, Even  up into the mid $2,000's we havent had any problem with vacancy.Sf price can be $30K, and it can be $5M.

I'd highly recommend picking up @Brandon Turner 's 2 books on rental properties, the newest BP book on How to Invest In Real Estate, and Rich Dad Poor Dad.

Collin -Go on HomeAway, VRBO and/or Airbnb and look at the calendars of comparable short term rental vacation home properties in the area of the home you are considering purchasing.Here in the Orlando area, the nightly rates and occupancy %s for homes that are new or newly renovated with fun amenities are significantly higher compared to those that need renovating and offer limited fun amenities.
