Is Your Punta Gorda Rental Still Making Money? (The 2026 Math)

I work with many "Accidental Landlords" in Punta Gorda who kept their first home as a rental. For years, it was great. But recently, the math has changed.
Q: Why does my cash flow feel lower?
A: It's not just you. Insurance premiums and maintenance costs have spiked, while rent growth has cooled. We call this the "Management Drag."
Q: Is it a good time to sell a rental?
A: Yes, because inventory is still tight for entry-level buyers. Your rental is likely the perfect starter home for a family.
If you are tired of tenant calls, let's run a "Return on Equity" analysis to see if your money could work harder elsewhere.
