Please give me all your advice  With ~$5k, you’re not really in a position to buy or flip out of state yet — that amount functions better as education, positioning, or partnership capital, not acquisition capital.Trying to flip or BRRRR remotely with limited reserves usually fails not because the idea is bad, but because there’s no margin for rehab overruns, appraisal gaps, or timing risk.If real estate is the goal, a safer progression I’ve seen work is:Use this phase to learn underwriting and deal analysis deeplyBuild local relationships in one target market (agents, property managers, lenders)Decide whether you want to be an operator or a capital partner before picking a strategyOnce you know which role you’re playing and have reserves behind it, the out-of-state question becomes much easier to answer.

Once you have a short list, get an account with each one and run them through the wringer to see how they really function.

This project reflects a disciplined renovation approach focused on improving functionality, appeal, and overall market positioning.What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?

Remember cash flow is just a function on how much leverage you use. 

The property itself.Goodies notice maintenance and functionality immediately.

So far, it seems like the demographics of my prior guests over the last 2 months have been families visiting the Kennedy Space Center, as my 2 br condo unit is 15-20 minutes away from the same (I'm not sure if that's just a function of those bookings being during the holiday season), but those have generally been short term stays between 2-7 days.
