Hi @Edward Zachary Samperio, the regulations aren't that difficult and I'd be happy to give you a quick rundown about the density limits, hotel occupancy taxes, permitting, etc. The major factor to standing out in any market is design. You can't list a property with basic design and expect to be successful, especially with today's property prices and rates. You need to remember that, hopefully, this is a long-term play for you, so work with a trusted STR designer (I have great recommendations), and spend the money upfront so you can be the most successful in your area. Also, don't go for 3 BR or smaller properties. Too many in the market already. Let's set up a time to chat! Reach out via my signature.

@Marc Shin why are you in a time crunch? If it’s just a matter of being anxious to get listed and go live, you’re doing yourself a massive disservice by wanting to go with basic pieces from those box stores. Most markets have a lot of competition, so IKEA style doesn’t work anymore. I always implore my clients to take the time to work with a designer who’ll knock it out of the park and get you those top daily rates. 

Hi @Edward Zachary Samperio I currently manage close to 20 STRs in San Antonio and would be happy to help. San Antonio has a vibrant and competitive STR market, which means there's great potential if done right! To maximize success, it's essential to focus on standout design and thoughtful decor that really sets your property apart. I recommend browsing Airbnb in your target zip codes to see what's trending on the front page—this can give you valuable insights into what's working well. These days, even properties with nice amenities like pools need to go the extra mile to capture attention and bookings. Let me know how I can assist further!

@Marc Shin, lots of good answers here. If you're not yet to the design and buildout phase of your STR, to stay organized with shipping and deliveries, use Minoan. com. Lots of discounts and a unified shopping cart across multiple online stores.

Hi @Kanika Jain, I operate about 20 STR properties in San Antonio and would be happy to discuss the market with you.

Hi @Scott Deetlefs, I'm in a high-level STR mastermind with lots of operators in NC who're successful. Would be happy to connect you with them and share your contact info.

Hi @Mariangela Ciciarelli I am a member of the STR Secrets mastermind and there are a lot of people in the mastermind with properties in the Orlando area. I'd be happy to share your info with them so they can help you be successful in that market too.

Hi @Suman Nandi, great plan. San Antonio is a great market...IF you're in it for the long term, because you'll need to put together a great product. I am working with a new management client right now to help them refresh their property that they listed five years ago and hadn't kept up with the increase in the professionalism of listings. Thinking you can furnish a property yourself will not yield the same revenue results as those that have high-level design from a professional. Would be happy to discuss more to help you make the right decision. Reach out to me on BP.
