@Mick Pristas thank you!

Hey guys! I’m new to the Tampa area. Specifically Odessa, and I’m finally at a point where I can start looking to get serious about real estate investing. I’ve searched the forums and the most recent Tampa meet up post is 5 years ago. Also tried Meetup.com and can’t find any meet ups there either. I figure there’s gotta be something like that in this big city! Let me know if you guys know of any, thank you!

@Michael Baum thank you! I have heard PM fees can be steep so we will make sure to calculate for that

@Brian Grow our aunt actually has a property like this in St. George and it’s a location we are really interested in! Unfortunately I don’t think our price point of 400k let’s us get into the St George market!

@Michael Baum great question. Time. I’m a busy medical student and my wife manages a business while we are also raising a toddler. Want something as hands off as possible and Im okay with sacrificing some cash flow as a result.

@Sarah Kensinger thank you!

@January Johnson sounds like what we are looking for! Will PM

@John Underwood thanks for your input

Hey guys! Newbie here.

My wife and I are looking for our first property, and what we want seems to be hard to just “google” and find so I thought I’d get on here and get your expertise on what’s out there!

We are looking into communities that were built specifically for STR purposes and have built in management/cleaning services on site. I've seen a place like this here in northern Michigan (Boyne Mountain Resort, for example) but we'd like to see what is out there in other markets. Looking to spend less than 400k, condo/townhome style is fine. We are either looking for a cool ski resort or something in a tropical market. I know, two different things, but again, just seeing what is out there.

Thank you all for your help ahead of time.

@Alecia Williams also, king bed for sure if you’re targeting couples. Otherwise another route you could take is do a 2 bed 2 bath with one king and one queen. That way if a couple stays there they have the king and at least one bathroom. But on the other hand sometimes nurses will travel with another nurse friend on the same contract and that would be the perfect set up so they each have their own room/bathroom. Just another 2 cents!
