We didn't travel much when our kids were young, but we started to travel a bit after our youngest went off to college. We vacationed on Vanderbilt Beach a several years ago and fell in love with the area and all the nearby amenities. My husband is nearing retirement and we hope to spend even more time in Florida, so we decided to start looking for our own piece of paradise!
We looked for a condo on the beach that would suit our needs, but would also make a good rental property. We finally found this gem in April 2019!!! We remodeled the unit to update the decor and to make it more comfortable and better able to suit the needs of different rental groups.
After COVID hit in 2020, we decided to add a home in the Naples Park area to our portfolio. We found a remodeled bungalow that is less than a mile from the beach and purchased it in October 2020. Again, we set it up to accommodate either families, several couples, or multi-generation families.
We added a third property - another Naples Park home - in May 2022 and completely remodeled and furnished it inside and outside to bring it up to our rental standards.
We hope you love spending time at our homes as much as we do!
