| Factor | Why it matters | What to verify |
|---|---|---|
| Location | Drives lifestyle appeal, resale demand, and rental potential. | Micro-location, access, security, noise, beach distance. |
| Building quality | Maintenance can strongly affect net returns. | Roof, water, power, elevators, HOA reserves, pool systems. |
| Rental feasibility | Not every attractive property is easy to operate. | HOA rules, local permits, management, realistic occupancy. |
| Legal clarity | A low price is not attractive without clean documents. | Title, registry, liens, seller authority, taxes, powers of attorney. |
