Airbnb experience as host in SOUTH FLORIDA,please share

[Ron Alexander]

Hello Everyone,

PS:UPDATED(MODERATOR please move or delete this post if needed this may not be the correct section)

I would be interested if you could share your experiences about doing short term rentals such as AIRBNB etc in SOUTH FLORIDA around the Miami/Fort Lauderdale Area,mainly interesting in the numbers to compare with a traditional yearly tenant,

I know you need to check for zoning restrictions,that a manager eat a bit of the cost and that doing it yourself is pretty demanding and stuff like that

But it really is the return you had that interests me and to know if you would switch to something else or doing it again,

I see tons of beachfront studios in the fort lauderdale,hollywood,sunny isles etc available in the 100K range that seems to be more like Hotel rooms,but if you get a constant traffic with very little vacancy it seems it could definitely makes sense doing it and tempting the adventure

Thanks to everyone

@Ron Alexander if you'd like to talk about returns, expected revenue projections I am the owner of Hoasty.co and we manage units across the USA and several in South Florida.

When it comes to price vs return, I'd say Central Florida prices are a bit more stabilized and tend to be similar pricing.

Yet insurance will be your big hit in Florida.

If you're considering a property you can always go on Hoasty.co to submit the property, and we run the potential revenue numbers for free.

Let me know how it goes, and Happy hunting.
