Pensacola investing information and advice
Good morning,
My husband and I just moved to the Pensacola area. I am wondering what the members on bigger pockets think of the area in aspect of real estate investing. We own property in Georgia and have had good success with them mainly due to the fact that the town is surrounded by a military base. Is there really a market here for investing... Is the spot to be in long term investing or is it short term vacation rentals? I personally like the long term rental property side of investing better than flipping as of right now, it works best for us at this time. Any info or thoughts would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you,
Courtney Spiers

Hi @Courtney Spiers. My wife and I vacation in Pensacola, and are considering a vacation rental there. It is a short 3.5 hour drive from our home. Because of the Pensacola having both a metro area and a beach, your investing could go either short or long term there. Especially considering your experience investing in a military town, long term rentals may be the way to go because of the Naval Air Station Pensacola located nearby.
