Anthony,
We charge $100 for a lease, $250 for advertising, and 10% for management.
All County would be another to talk to, as well as Langee.

Hi Carolyn,
All the properties on the 27 corridor throughout Polk, DeSoto, Highlands, and Hardee counties are a value buy. Don't expect radical appreciation like the rest of Florida, but you will easily cashflow.

Up your vacancy to 10%, and ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS!!!! factor Cap Ex! Can't stress that enough!! For a duplec or larger, you have 1x the problems of a single family for each unit - You need to hold a minimum of 5% per month for Cap Ex, the smart thing to do would be to hold 5% for Cap Ex, and 2.5% for repairs - better to hold too much, than not enough.
Whether you hire management or not, always factor the cost in. I know that most of Tampa is 10-12% of gross collected. If you factor the cost in, it's your extra pay; if you're sick of dealing with the tenants, hire someone and go look for the next one.
Overall, I'd say you have a good deal here, but I'm happy with mortgage plus 5% net.

Natalie,
Welcome to BP! Sarasota is my hometown, and I agree, we are very much in a bubble.
Enjoy BP as you search your way through the forums - there's a host of information to see here!

Merlie,
We're always looking for managers - have you already gotten your Fl Real Estate license, or are you currently working to attain it? If you already have it, when were you originally licensed?
