STR investing: How do you feel after Covid?
Now that we have almost a year of data of Covid, how has that made you feel about STR as a strategy for you as an investor? In my experience STR just have the best returns, nothing else comes close (maybe this is a misunderstanding on my part). And if you want to create cashflow and gain financial freedom it just is the best method to follow. What are your experiences and thoughts on this investment strategy as we move forward?

There are STR'S and then there are vacation rentals. My vacation rental had the best year ever in 2020.
STR's that were not also vacation rentals mostly struggled from what I have heard.
