@James Michael Carroll  I’ve been a fan of the south shore for a long time.  

If you wait it out and squeak enough, you'll save bunches.Since they have to be called out again for the same issue, you shouldn't have to pay another service fee.We got an inside condenser, fan, compressor, capacitor and outside fan replaced for $180. 

I am a big fan of the podcast and have been reading threads and conversations on the site for a few months.

Hi James,My wife and I are huge Dave Ramsey fans!

Wait until all the home games are played with fans coming from all over.Terry

I’m looking at brokerages too and was leaning towards KW but am not a fan of the crazy commission splits.

Not a fan of the 10% flat fee added to the loan. 

Tampa is also a super competitive market, and FHA loans come with more stringent guidelines in a lenders eyes, and Sellers aren't huge fans of FHA buyers. 

They are reliable, easy to use, and free (unless you need expedited payments) for both you and your tenants.They do their processing using a tier 1 payment processing company (Stripe), which is backed by Wells Fargo... so it's unlikely you'll see any significant payment issues like a competitor's recent issues.After about a year using Cozy, I'm a big fan.

@Luke Shaw I am not a huge fan of condos for an investment.
