First, I would say don't make rash decisions just because you are getting discouraged.

Quote from @Jason Rash: In South Florida, I see a few things happening:AIRBNB - Most people I personally know who went into Airbnb jumped in after getting swept up in the Big returns + the 2.5% Interest rates.

I think they got screwed 5 or 6 years ago with a rash of inexperienced or even fraudulent borrowers who defaulted on their loans, and have since gotten much, much stricter. 

Look for neighborhoods where there are lots of people with bad hats and bad facial hair.

I want something that would make facial recognition easy.  

Quote from @Jason Rash: I'm an agent in South Florida, and an investor - here's what I see and what I know.I just sold an Airbnb for 1.3 million in West Palm.

I'm trying not to make a rash decision but also not get myself into a financial conundrum. 

The key seems to be not letting this current tax rate issue push me into making a rash Risky investment that could end up costing more than simply paying the excessive taxes now!  

where one can ask a technical question and get a rash of political answers...."

To design this plan, it's best to reverse engineer it from your ultimate goals, back to where you are now.Don't get so focused on getting there so fast that you make rash/poor decisions.
