Gotta make sure in your listing and RA you have that there will be no reufnds due to weather. Also need to make sure you are encouraging them to buy travel insurance. 

When you go to Disney World and it rains they don't give you a discount or refund, they sell you a overpriced poncho. 

YOU! Self management is the way!! I would check out BP's book on STR's called Short Term Rental , Long Term Wealth. This book is written by Avery Carl. It is truly your guide!

Enemy Method!! 

Best part - it's free!! 

Hop on VRBO and Airbnb and check out other homes in the area that are similar to yours and see what they are doing and what you can learn from your neighbors.

The Great Smoky Mountains! My husband and I have four there, we love it in The Smokies. I work with The Short Term Shop and they specialize in helping investors purchase and learn to run and manage their str's.
