Recently, the President of my brokerage, REAL, created a video explaining the changes to the real estate world. As a buyer or seller of real estate, this video can help to address some questions or concerns you may have, especially given how much misinformation is out there right now. If you have any questions after watching the video, please don't hesitate to reach out to me!

 We have 2 bathrooms and allow up to 8 guests.

 This current property has 2 bathrooms with occupancy for 8. I was mainly wondering if there was a generic rule of thumb, like 2 towels per person or 8 per bathroom (including backups).

I'm currently furnishing a short-term rental and am curious about how many of each kind of towel I should get (Bath towel, hand towel, wash cloth, bath mat). Should I count it as per guest, or per bathroom?

Does anybody have recommendations on using hospitality-grade linens versus purchasing residential-grade? I have recently started using Minoan and they have some great deals on hospitality-grade items, just wondering which route I would be better going down. 

I will say that AirDNA is very dependent on the area. For instance, I am in the Augusta, GA market and we have the annual Masters golf tournament. Many of the homeowners in our city will rent out their homes for this week alone but they keep their listing on Airbnb at the inflated price ($1,000+/night). AirDNA doesn't know how to filter these inflated prices out so I will frequently see a projection for $200,000 annually when I know that it is more along the lines of $45,000. Just make sure to do some extra due diligence and don't take its projected revenue at face value.

Hey everyone! I'll be sending out a weekly spreadsheet of what I consider to be the best investment properties in the Augusta, Ga market! This will include a detailed report of projected rent rates, renovation estimates, all expenses, ARV, and cap rate calculation. If this is something that you would be interested in then feel free to connect with me!

 Thanks @Erin Church! Unfortunately I still work a full-time W2, so I won't be able to make some of the meetups but I will try and come to what I can!
