I am looking at a condo that is located across the street from a Sonesta Suites extended stay hotel. They post their rooms on the normal hotel, discount site, etc. They also post their rooms on Airbnb. Could this potentially throw off my estimated revenue, occupancy, and daily rate numbers to skew them higher than they should be?

Quote from @Michael Baum:

Hey @Corbin Wright, so this site came up earlier and I am a little dubious.

Essentially, just because the property is working now, doesn't assure future success.

So much goes into creating a successful STR that it can be difficult for those that have never done it to maintain the level of success.

They want you to subscribe as well as pay for the "Pro" subscription. Not my cup of tea.

You best bet IMHO is to drop the deals right here in the forum for us to look at. There is a lot of experienced people here that can help.


I agree that current success doesn't translate into future success especially since it will be my first property. Do you have a recommendation as to how I should narrow down my search to just a few areas? Seems like the most logical way to do that is make sure it's a good market/deal and personal preference but there's plenty I've found that could be good deals.

Areas in and around: Asheville, Banner Elk, Blowing Rock, Boone, Highlands. As well as Fredericksburg, TX. 

These areas have traffic year round and are close to tourist attractions.

I'm stuck in the dreaded, analysis paralysis, and I'm wondering if it would help narrow my focus. I had my short list of 3 cities to choose a property in, and then curiosity got the best of me, I analyzed 5-6 more places and now I'm lost in the weeds again. Any advice to get out of the rut would be greatly appreciated as well.
