Investing in a home to use as a vacation rental is an excellent move. Especially in Miami, the property market is booming for landlords — the tourist attractions are a highlight. But there are things potential buyers need to know about finding the perfect property to buy and market.

Owning a rental property is a big responsibility, whether it’s for vacationers or long-term tenants, and it comes with a lot to think about throughout the year. One major concern for most rental property owners is how to keep the area safe and secure. Many investors far away from the homes they rent out, and it can be tricky to figure out how to ensure everything is under control.

Not only that, but there are also several tactics you can utilize that will help to deter burglars and prevent fires and other disasters. Some of these, such as reinforcing locks and installing smoke and carbon monoxide detectors in each room, are extres ...

Before you apply for a mortgage, make sure you’re in a good position to qualify for the best loan possible. Check and improve your credit, compare lenders, get preapproved and make a plan for your down payment and closing costs.
1. Check and improve your credit report. Lenders will check your credit report, so you want to identify and fix problems with your credit report before you apply.
Order a free copy of your credit report from each of the three credit bureaus at AnnualCreditReport.com. Your report will list your borrowing history, including any negative marks.

Although improving your c ...
