Rental income from property, especially in sought-after areas like Sarasota and Manatee, can be a stable, long-term source of wealth. It’s the kind of passive income that builds slowly, but reliably, over time. There’s a downside to it, though. With every new property you acquire comes another set of tenants, another roof that might need fixing, and another A/C unit that could go out in the middle of...
