    Hi Andrea,

    Welcome to the world of real estate investing! Short-term rentals can be a great starting point, especially in markets with high tourism or business travel. One tip: focus on areas with year-round demand and check local regulations early—they can make or break a deal.

    What market are you looking into? I’d love to hear about your goals and share insights if I can help. Let’s connect and learn together!

    Best,

    Anderson

    Hey Andrea, for STR you're definitely going to want to look into A/B class areas. These are prime locations, think near downtown or popular tourist destinations where demand for short-term rentals is typically high. These areas might have higher property prices, but they can offer premium rental rates and higher occupancy.

    Hi Andrea, my wife and I own a Short Term Rental in West Michigan so I would be happy to answer any questions you have on how to analyze the property, what you should look for in a property and what questions to ask the county.
