I live in the Winter Garden area and have a reliable source of transportation.

They live in GA during the winter and PA(where home really is) in the summer.We hit it off and spoke for an hour and a half and he then asked me if I would be willing to market his home while they are in PA for the summer(they leave in April) and keep an eye on it.

Hi Mike, a typical 4000 sq ft home in MN will consume on average $100 per month of electricity  (about 800 kwatts) and $500-$600/month for gas in winter, $300/month in the spring and fall and $60/month in summer for water heating, cloth drying and cooking.

I don't know your market down there, but I know in the valley a mediocre 2br condo will rent for 800 a month in the summer and 1200 a month during the winter months.

@George HermannLets say the Queens areas of Forest Hills & Briarwood 3-4 unit buildings..

Yes, even in the winter time.Since you already have air ducts in the house, I'd tend to agree with your gas furnace idea. 

I'm an agent/investor in the Winter Park area, so reach out anytime.I wish you all the best Chris!

I would look at going with darker color for the main color like a toupe, light/medium brown, forest green. 

I mam currently residing in Wake Forest and look for most deals in the Durham, Raleigh, Chapel Hill, Clayton and Cary locations.

There is a local meetup in Lake forest every month that you should check out. http://meetu.ps/2QWCkhIf you would like to meet up before then and talk about investing let me know.
