Air Bnb Arbitrage questions from a beginner

Hi! It's been a lot of learning in the past few months and Air bnb arbitrage seems like a great niche to get into to cash flow and learn markets before buying property. 

If anyone has advice on the following I'm all ears:

1) What markets do you recommend I look into? Currently I'm looking into Reno, NV

2) Does anyone have property they are interested in me renting from them in order to arbitrage?

3) Where should I spend my next 4 months educationally (if arbitrage doesn't work out)?

Quote from @Josh Raikin:

Most of us don't give advice on how to arbitrage because it's not a good idea from an investor's standpoint.

If you read the forums, you'll find a plot of posts talking about the market slowing down. It's also on the news. Short-term rentals are not doing what they were doing in 2020/2021 and some people have seen activity come to a screeching halt. I think this is a return to normal, but nobody really knows. What we do know is this may not be the best time to get into STR.
