Vacation Rental Markets

[Matt Schreiber]

I was looking to connect with people who currently own a few vacation rentals in any market or people who are looking into it. I have a short term rental in Tybee Island, GA and Weaverville, NC that have both been active for about a year and two new ones in the Outer Banks and Panama City Beach that have just been live for a little over a month. I've done a decent amount of research into these markets but also spend a lot of my free time just reading every article I can find about the best vacation rental markets in the country and also reading through these forums to see what other people are saying. Lately I've been looking into Blue Ridge, GA, Poconos, PA and Bryson City, NC. I am open to any markets in the country so was curious if anyone had any good markets that they invest in that they would want to talk about and I can give my feedback on what I've seen so far in my short amount of time doing this. Would love to compare notes with anyone. Thanks

@Matt Schreiber my wife and I have owned three condos since 2019 in Branson, Mo. We self manage and have enjoyed the experience so far. Branson is similar to Gatlinburg TN area as far as being a high tourist area, and some investors are looking here due to being priced out in Tennessee. It really only has a two month down season in Jan-Feb. great town.
