In reality, the process is far more complex, and inexperienced flippers frequently lose money.

If ai refi and rent it, best case I MIGHT get $200-$300 above monthly expenses, worst case I lose $100/month but won’t be able to get any cash out or pay off my credit cards and investor.I’ve done a few single family flips and have other rentals so I’m not new to the process but I’m torn about taking the loss vs. holding long term.Long term I’m counting on appreciation, rent growth, no major insurance or tax increases, or major repairs.Selling I’m taking a right now loss and walk away with $20k to reinvest in whatever is next.I know the answer is always “it depends” but I’m curious what others would do.For reference the property is on a very populated island near Kennedy Space Center in Florida.

Designing with the guest’s decision process in mind is one of the most overlooked ways to protect returns before the property is even built.

I’ve seen situations like this before, and usually the bigger issue ends up being management and process, not just the tenant.

Their team also did not explain processes, waits too long to review and communicate items back to their customers. 

What is your marketing process? 

We partnered with a friend out in TX on a STR as our foot in the door to learn about real estate and have him hold our hand through this process, to learn from him.

Each town is different with rules and regulations but all town typically are similar with the process. 

As part of the tax sale process they should have tried to notify the owner.

Any advice on how to structure the learning process, find reliable information, or better understand my local market would be greatly appreciated.
