@Spring Goldman, as David mentioned above, Tampa Bay area is a good place for STR's right now. If you are looking to connect with an investor/investor focused realtor in the area, reach out to @Josh Green. He's helped a few of my clients with their STR needs.

@Tajinder S., like @Andrew Steffens mentioned, the Orlando market is a bit saturated right now. If you go a little bit west towards the Tampa Bay Area, you may have better opportunity with a short term rental. If you would like to explore this area at all and see what it’s all about, reach out to @Josh Green. He is an investor/ investor focused agent that can assist you with running the numbers, finding a property and even managing it as well!

@Jim Hagstrom, I'm not sure if you're working with an investor/investor focused realtor, but if you are not, or need a second opinion to make sure you're making the right decisions, I would recommend reaching out to @Josh Green directly. It seems like you have a bit of uncertainty going on right now.

Hi @Jim Hagstrom, have you purchased the condo already or are you looking to make the purchase? Check the bylaws of the condo to make sure that STR is allowed. @Josh Green, do you know if STR's are allowed in Palm Harbor?

@Andreu Ferragut, depending on what you did prior to becoming an independent contractor, you might qualify for a one year income verification type loan. Feel free to reach out directly with any questions. I have done this before.
