Your paying that’s all you have to know.Before Covid I would rent my home in winter and alternate between Miami Beach , Thailand and Hawaii what I do with the rent is not anyone’s business and no one has ever asked

Two years ago we rented a 3/2 with a golf course view for $1500 a month. Costs made it a poor moneymaker, except for tax implications(these were good). Do not know what market price is now. TV a lot less desirable in the HOT months.

Villa might be more desirable to rent than regular home. WIth rent prices rising now might be a good time to rent. Suspect that there could be demand from an over 55 local person.

I own a patio villa just north of Fl 44 Even though I am a remote owner I do come down at least once a year to do a through cleaning & maintenance I try to keep it maintained to a as new condition as possible because this is a investment Everyone's cost are different but cost keep going up every year We have a mortgage on the property Different areas of the villages will have different rental prices depending on your location , condition of the property and current trend where people want to stay like being close to a town square. I look at the prices of rentals on airbnb and vbro and how cheap per night some people are renting their villa for. You can't get a hotel room for that cheap and they renting a whole villa for less. I don't want to seem mean or discriminator but I don't want to rent for a low price that will encourage more of the rift raft to rent. I think as landlords we should start to look at rising prices to some extent's because my water electric cable lawn pest and handyman cost amenity fee taxes to some degree are going up not down

We have the opposite problem working as we speak..we rented to someone for 3 mths, cleaning lady goes in and discovers mildew everywhere. Hvac came, he says it's not the air con, but by the type of damage looks like they used our home as a "grow house". Furniture ruined, pictures, carpets. Very hard to prove, we're working on it. So beware folks

That would be an incorrect statement. Had nothing To do with renting and lack of community feeling. The reason you sign today owner occupied only on a new build. because homes are at extremely low inventory, and selling before they hit the website.
Those who wanted to retire and live here had very little luck in finding a home.
Inventory is still very low, and even pre owned is selling in first few days, sometimes hours of signing contract.

You can however buy a pre owned and use it as a rental
