Let's meet for coffee and help each other.

Think: a coffee station stocked with local beans or a reading nook with plenty of natural light.

Hi everyone,I recently started a short-term rental property management company based in the Orlando area (Davenport specifically), and I’m looking to connect with experienced STR property managers or cohosts who are actively managing in this market.I’d love the opportunity to meet for a quick coffee or Zoom chat to learn from your experience and maybe share some insights as well.

My wife and I are planning a move to Marin County in 2026, and we’re actively prepping to buy a small multifamily to househack - ideally 2–4 units, with the goal of buying another property in 1-1.5 years and cash flowing after we move out from the first one.We’re targeting:- Timeline: early 2026- $500-800k, possibly stretching higher if the deal makes sense- 5% down conventional- Class B to C+ neighborhoods in Marin, Sonoma, or nearby East Bay- Ideally some value-add upsideThe plan is to build some equity and appreciation, repeat, and branch into out-of-state investing.

Natural issues like flooding, storms, or power outages can cause major disruptions, and not all neighbors are thrilled to have STRs nearby.

For example, nail salons, grocery stores, restaurants/coffee, etc. will be a better attraction for tenants rather than a traditional medical office.

This includes a full layout and design plan using easily sourced items online.Alternatively, for clients who prefer a more personalized touch, I can connect you with a local designer who can shop in nearby stores and isn’t limited to online sourcing—perfect for creating a space that feels both stylish and regionally authentic.I truly believe she has a great eye for design and would excel in this space.

Now many of our clients are from out-of-state or in nearby Missouri metros like Kansas City, St.

Do you have a college/university nearby?

Also, having a good local property manager is key — they give you real-time insight into rents, vacancies, and property conditions.If you’re looking at markets nearby like Memphis or North Alabama, I’d say focus on understanding local rent trends and tax environments — they can vary widely.
