Inflation And The STR Market?

Paul Crutcher
Posted

Hey everyone!

I've been building on my knowledge for the past two years and finally have a plan to buy a home in February 2022. My goal is to have a multifamily home in a STR market. I'm looking into Galveston, Tx to purchase with a FHA, or 100% financing through my local credit union. With inflation, I've heard that it's best to collect debt secured in assets, but I want to know what y'all think of that statement?

What should I be preparing for with this inflation? 

How would it affect the mindset of the people who are usually interested in renting an AirBNB? 

How else can I hedge against this uncertain market?

You will have a fixed rate mortgage so your mortgage payment will be the same, but rents can go up to offset inflation.

This will cover increased insurance, taxes and general Cost of Living.
