Education for Short term rentals
I have spent a few years renovating and renting long term rentals but am going to add the strategy of STR short term rentals. I found several podcasts, webinars and blogs to help with out of state renovations but am having a harder time getting educated on short term rentals.
Does anyone have any suggestions on educations materials for airbnb/short term rentals?
Particularly interested in what to expect for handling costs/maintenance as well as maximizing income.
Thank you in advance. This community has been life changing :)

@John Voychick. If you do STR don't just limit yourself to vacation travelers. I do STR to traveling medical workers. Great demand and good return. There are a few websites that cater to this industry. I pay $99 per year to list my properties. You can list more than one. I am usually booked 9 months out. I require 30 day minimum but most want 3 months.
