I've been a licensed agent here in Maine at the Augusta-based Pouliot Real Estate for the last 2 years, but began my real estate career in Savannah, Georgia (my GA license is currently inactive).

Hello- I am considering purchasing a property that is a main home (3 bed 3 bath) with an attached apartment over the garage (1 bed, 1 bath) with separate entrance.

I think the main thing people would point to as a red flag for Ocala is that it is not a large employment center like Orlando, Tampa, and Jacksonville and as a result may be more exposed to a pull back in values when there is a downturn. 

Problem with Zillow and FB is they have this annoying "1-click reply" where people can just click on your ad without reading it and you get an automated message "Joe is interested in your apartment at 123 Main St."

Hi Ryan, Sounds awesome, me and my husband are doing our investments together also and really love to connect with more couples :) We are new to these areas and looking for rentals that works with BRRRR which is our main strategy, did you try to find BRRRR or do you prefer flips and STR?

I will say that even though you get the boost from VRBO and AirBNB, the first year of operation is usually lean as you build up the rep.Offering a discount on the stay is a way to be more attractive but don't go crazy.

It can accelerates process and can make numbers look very attractive (if you are open to renovations, does not need to be crazy)

Purchase price: $20,000 Cash invested: $45,000 Sale price: $99,000 Contributors: Peter Vekselman Partner Driven and Amanda Frecks teamed up for an exciting flip on Main St, Grainfield, KS.

Incorporating a washer-dryer hookup in the main house could be advantageous.This addition not only increases the convenience for potential renters but also adds value to the property itself.

Personally, I find BTRs to be more predictable with fewer ongoing maintenance issues, and they tend to attract high-quality tenants.
