Hi everyone! My name is Josh, I'm from Palm Bay, FL and am ready to get started on my real estate investing career. I have been listening to Bigger Pockets podcasts and reading books for a while now and am ready to get moving. I am seeking to purchase BRRRR properties for long term investments as well as fix and flip opportunities for additional income in Brevard County. I am commited to purchasing my first propery this year.

I look forward to connecting with the BP community!

     are you familiar with which areas can do short term rentals? I know not all do.

    What kind of revenue they earn? 

    I would love to learn more about the area & have not had success in finding much information

    @Judy Sprinkle, Melbourne Beach allows them, Indian Harbour Beach allows them.  Satellite Beach proper does not. Unincorporated Brevard and Melbourne does allow them (one slice of land comes through the barrier island). East of A1A in the condos and houses they are allowed.  I called each municipality when I bought my houses to ensure we wouldn't get shut down.  I live in Indialantic, and they are a hard NO, except for East of A1A.

    so if I understand correctly Satellite is no but the other towns are good if they are east of A1A? I live in San Diego so am unfamiliar with the laws there.Do you have a good realtor who is experienced in the STR market? We just bought a STR on the Panhandle & had a great realtor!

     I believe Kerry's referring to Satellite. Remember that about 25% of Satellite Beach is unincorporated (the northern part) and you are allowed to do STRs there. If you go north, there's some question about it. Ie, Cape Canaveral has a 7-day minimum unless you've been grandfathered in....but I have yet to find out who is grandfathered in.

    I am looking to build a portfolio of STR's in Daytona Beach FL using Seller or Creative Financing.

    Any recommendations for a realtor who has experience with this?
