Renting out a House

Renting out single family homes in South Florida at positive cash flow can sometimes be a challenge.

An investor can consider finding houses near town or universities and especially properties with multiply use zoning.

Seriously consider obtaining the proper license; rooming house, B&B, or motel. This will increase the value of your investment and keep you from trouble.

Now it is possible to update the house into equal bath and bedrooms. Each bedroom with private bath, clothes closet, microwave and counter top refrigerator. Be sure to install a good water filter system.

Living room, carport or garage is not necessary allowing for more bedroom spaces.   Try for at least four bedrooms and four bathrooms, kitchen, dining area and sitting room.  Include a nice entrance foyer.

The back yard should be fenced in for privacy. A washer dryer is important and could be coin operated. Because the hot water tank cannot be close to every room consider adding quick recovery hot water near each bath.

Depending on location, you can now rent furnished rooms at $300.00 per week that includes utilities.

This offer is Donkey Dust!

This is the advertisement on Television every day!

This offer is impossible to obtain through an GMC dealer in South Florida.

This offer is Donkey Dust!

I am ashamed and embarrassed to live in a country that allows car dealers to mislead the public for many years in a row.

The automobile industry creates many jobs and spreads much cash flow throughout out industry; however, this is not an excuse to allow the industry to take advantage of the public.

Charging a dealer fee is like a department store charging a cashier’s fee!

Charging a dealer fee is like a supermarket charging a bagging fee!

Then there is a turn the lease fee. Just what is a turn in a lease fee?

The advertisement reads $769.00 down pulse title and license and $199.00 monthly pulse sales tax.

I have visited two GMS dealers and communicated with many other dealers by phone, chat or email.

This offer is not available; however, out state and federal officials permit this and many other bogus automobile offers to continue unchecked and unchallenged.

Why bother having rules if they are selectively enforced. It appears that the garment industry and the retailers are held to strict compliance and that the automobile industry is allow to run wild.
