From April 2018 thru April 2020 we rented out a 3br bath home on golf course. Were told that market was not good. Rented home on yearly lease for $1500 a month. After paying fees and utiliites netted $850 a month(without a mortgage). Not much demand for yearly rental(too hot in the summer). Could have rented seasonal but was told that it would be difficult to get a long(4-6 month) lease and there was demand for 1-2 months lease. It is a crap shoot on making money and you need to look into long term appreciation.

Does have tax advantages. Realtors appear to have great lobbyists.
