I have been buying severely dilapidated houses since 2001 to remodel and either sell or rent. I went strong until 2021, when I decided to give it up and go live by the beach. I sold my portfolio in 2022 and moved from Charleston WV to Panama City Beach, Florida with no intention of buying another investment property.

But in 2024, my house buying addiction came back full force and I started buying back in Charleston WV again. I go back and forth between WV and FL about every 2 to 3 weeks. It's an exhausting 13 hour journey each way but then I get to have the best of both worlds!
