Vacation rentals and Airbnb

[Josh Ward]

I have a few traditional rental properties here in Utah, but would like to learn more about vacation rentals. My hesitation is that they won't always be occupied or that vacation management and cleaning fees will wipe away the potential cashflow.

I live in Utah but am currently getting pre-approved for townhomes in Orlando that are within 5 miles of Disney World. What are your thoughts? Are vacation rentals a good investment? Should I rethink targeting Orlando?

Thanks!
