Toys for the lake, beach, camping, grilling, firepits where allowed, partnering with local businesses to create holistic experiences for the guests.

I'm toying with an idea for a system that would handle guest communication workflows using AI, analyze the feedback, and also trigger surveys post-stay/review for tracking performance.As far as I can tell, there's nothing out there that does those 3, but perhaps there are separate services that provide some or more of those.

@Haley ElisabethYou are not missing anything but there is what I would call good debt and bad debt.For example if I buy a property cash, rehab it and it has a $300,000 value and can be used as a rental and provide cash flow - getting a $150k loan on that asset to buy another (not blow it on toys) say $300k asset I have 2x future appreciation than one asset.

Who has a direct lender I can go to? Yes
