@Alex Mcfarlane, reach out to @Josh Green who was previously recommended. He’s honestly my go to agent for everything in the Tampa Bay Area. He’ll always give you the honest truth!

@Alec Strahl I’m not sure if you necessarily need a business coach, but more so someone that’s actually involved in the field themselves that has a proven track record. I’m sure @Josh Green would be willing to help you out, but of course you’ll also have to use him as your agent as well. He has helped a ton of people in your area from BP!

@Jesse Hubble, that’s not true. I’ve assisted my clients with purchasing with as little as 15% down. 20% is usually what most investors put for down payment. Feel free to contact me if you need more information.

@Sean Huynh I'm sorry to hear about your experience. Perhaps you should look into Tampa Bay area. @Josh Green has a successful STR operation and is not as saturated as you had mentioned.

@Robert Smith I know of a few options here in Florida that offer financing to individuals that have been self-employed for less than 2 years, but must be 1 year or greater, in order for it to work. Feel free to contact me. My info is in my signature.

@Brady D'Hont if you’re looking to be in the Tampa Bay Area, I recommend reaching out to @Josh Green. Especially if you’re looking to do short term rentals. He’s got it dialed in.
