Post: First time buyer STR in Panama City beach area

Hi Mark! I know you mentioned Panama City Beach area but if you're open to Jacksonville, we have a fully furnished turnkey STR listed on the market at the moment that is generating over $40,000 in annual gross revenue. Let me know if you're open to looking at it.

I do agree HOA's are tricky to deal with especially when looking for an STR. A lot of them have restrictions where you have to rent it for a minimum of one month. We typically work with investors looking for long term rentals but most of them stay away from HOA's unless they can find one that's very low fees. Usually when are clients have an idea of what they want but are open to other strategies or types of properties, that is when we see them grow their portfolio the most. All has it's pros and cons. Hope this helps!

We are property managers in Jacksonville, Florida and certain parts of Jax do really well for short term rentals. We have a listing now that's for sale in the Historic Riverside area that's generating over $40,000 in annual gross revenue after Airbnb fees. It's frequently booked. Other areas that do well for STR here are San Marco and of course the beaches. Hope this helps and best of luck!

@Megan Rock Welcome to the world of property management, Megan! Definitely we have owners that want to be very hands on but most of them want us to handle things for them. It's definitely learning how each owner likes to work and catering to them :)

@Priyanka Verma I absolutely love your response! That's 100% what a great property manager should do. I hope you are having that experience yourself :) Thanks for responding!

Quote from @Jose Clavijo:

As an investor, I see a great property manager as my boots on the ground, someone who’s looking out for my property like it’s their own.

I expect them to handle the day-to-day stuff: tenant communication, maintenance, rent collection, turnovers, etc , without needing me to step in all the time. But just as important, I want someone who’s transparent, responsive, and doesn’t nickel and dime every repair.

I self-manage locally here in NC, but when I’ve had out-of-state deals, a solid PM made all the difference in keeping things running smoothly and stress-free. Definitely agree that good ones are worth their weight in gold. I've had a 4 year relationship with one and it has been pretty solid, good property inspections and regular maintenance. 

You hit the nail on the head! I’m glad you’ve had success both self managing and with a PM! We started off self managing our properties as well.

Hi Mike! It's all about who you hire to manage them :) We started off managing our own properties and soon after started our own property management company. While I initially thought it was an easy task and that property managers did not provide much value, I quickly saw all the value a good property manager does provide to an investor, which is why we decided to start our own brokerage. We now manage 500 units in Jacksonville / Northeast Florida and in South Florida. I am happy to chat through any questions you may have including the pros and cons of self managing.
