To (Air B N) B or not to (Air B N) B? That is the question.

[David West]

Does anyone have experience with short term rentals on sites like Air B N B? I want to know the good, the bad, and the ugly! I'm in the San Diego market so there is a high demand for short term rentals and it seems like a no brainer. When I pencil out the returns it seems too good to be true. What am I missing here? Who's actively investing in these types of deals, and what do you wish you would have done from the beginning? What expenses did you miss or were bigger than you anticipated? What are the pros and cons of this type of investment?
