Vactional Rental Research

[Keith Jablonowski]

Hello, looking to expand our portfolio into vacation rentals. All of my current investing has been full time rental SFH/Duplexes. Want to begin with 1 property that our family can use 4-6 times/year and list it the rest of the time. Ideal areas would be S WI, N IN, SW MI (withing 2.5 hrs of Chicago). Where can I find the best resources to research supply/demand on Vacation rentals specifically? Do VRBO/AirBnb offer research information to potential landlords? Looking for something with some year round demand though I realize there were be higher demand periods no doubt. Also prefer not to manage ourselves, so need to be able to research the availability of local management in any area.

Thanks in advance.
