Understanding your property budget and being able to predict large capital expendatures and having money set aside for these major repairs will help you be a better landlord but also have more profitable properties.

In this episode Nic and I are rapping about a little know Florida law that real estate invesotrs are using to take over condominiums and force out the owners.  This law forces the other owners to sell their properties EVEN AT A LOSS.  So the developer can then turn the condo into apartment complex to make money. 
This hardly seems fair.  Nicole and I are talking about how this is happening at several condo complexes where investors are moving in and forcing out residents so they can convert the units into apartments. 
Should real estate investors force out residents just to profit?  This loophole in the Florida law just further blackens the eye of the real estate investors.
Nic and I are talking about how this is happening and whats being done about it.
