How do I go about finding informatin about BUYING a vacation home near WDW?

[1rockinmamato2]

We're thinking about it. We'd like to go in with another couple, or two, to do this. I have already figured the mortgage payment on some that I have found, but I have no clue about management companies, cleaning companies, etc.

If anyone could give me advice or point me in the right direction on the Internet, I would appreciate it.

Thanks!

What I am about to say is just MHO. I am a resident surrounded by short term rental homes. The majority of the homes sit empty at least 50% of the time.

Many are going to long term or selling. Why? because a short term rental is a dime a dozen here. Competition is fierce and it's very hard to stand out and get full time bookings.

Now, if you have the extra income and plan on doing the majority of the bookings yourself and have someone in place that will watch over the place and take care of issues for you...then I'd say consider it.

I see more and more for sale signs with fully furnished on the signs on a daily basis.

Foreclosures are the norm and banks want a large downpayment.

For everyone that is making a go of it, congrats, but honestly with the economy the way it is.....well I personally wouldn't do it with the thought of being able to make money off it or even count on making the mortgage every month.

Again, just MHO
