Hey guys,-I'm meeting with a friend that's a broker this Thursday to discuss possibly joining him as he seems to want to cater to the investor market.

"long term" usually trips at the 30 day mark, these seems problematic as it does take away a lot of the market if you are looking to pursue the Air BNB model and weekend warriors during the summer months but there is a local market for 30+ days and folks are doing quite well as there is a large contractor, nurse, government presence in the area... just food for thought.As far as true STR goes reach out to planning in Va beach to get the actual information regarding what is and what is not allowed and where. 

If you cater to transitioning military families year round is definitely possible.  

Furniture, linens and food: You presumably provide guests with at least a couch, if not a bed.

I'm guessing the cat sometimes jumps on the washing machine to get to the food bowls and scratches the surface when it can't make it.

I bought the ring on credit that will be paid off next month when the feast is strong. 5 years ago I would go eat at my mother's house because I couldn't afford food during the famon.

Purchase price: $3,100,000 Cash invested: $240,000 Farmers Market with 14 food vendors and 13 apartments above.

However, even the office space is crashing, it's very specific too, it's specific to office for the tenant that's sensitive to interest rate factor such as the one located in bay area and NYC as they're caters primarily to finance/tech sector.

Karen, do you work for food?

Additional food for thought is saving some of the cash flow for repairs you may need.
