Florida keys investment opportunities
Florida Keys Investment opportunitiesWith all the abundant recreational opportunities mixed in with a great climate the Keys attract people...lots of people.Tourists in turn need places to stay and people relocating need places to rent either part time or while they close on a home or find an apartment. The Keys are definitely a happening place.Types of Investments
Aside from commercial investments the two situations most people are looking for in Florida are
Vacation homes or Condos that can be rented out … Generally a purchase involves a 1031 tax exchange or just someone looking for a second home in an area that he/she or the family will use occasionally.
A person looking for a home to eventually retire to and rent out in the meantime to help pay the mortgage.
The best areas to rent are anywhere near the water and the best rents will start at open water locations, followed by homes/condos with a partial view to homes on canals. The neighborhood and the furnishings will also dictate the rent amounts you can get. In the Keys-the best situation was a home at least three bedrooms and up on the Ocean or Gulf with a pool and a boat dock. In some cases these bring as much as $5000.00 per week, depending on the home/area.
It is very important that you find out early on which residential areas and which condo associations allow weekly rentals-as this will be generally be your best return.
In some cases you may want to just rent out long term and skip the dealings with handy men and cleaning services.
In all of this—the most important thing is that you find a qualified adent. He/she can guide you through the process completely—including setting up property management.
