I'm also moving to the MTR strategy as we go to the fall/winter seasons here in Denver. 4 months out of the year it's reeeaaal slow as an STR, but MTR strat could keep things more afloat.Cheers,Ian

As I mentioned in my original post on here, the warmer summer months will take care of themselves, but if you want to have the STR operating all year round, the winter months require much more effort to make your property a place people will want to visit and stay even when the weather gets nasty.Nothing against VRBO, but I would also take a few minutes to check out what listings are available on Airbnb as well. 

Can't really argue, places like Indianapolis, Columbus, Dayton, even Chicago (despite the higher Illinois taxes and…all the fun that comes along with Chicago) can pencil if you find the right property.On a different front, though, I ran a survey a week ago asking where people are looking to invest this year.

It's fun. 

I looked it up just for fun, here's a link:https://www.thefaircapital.com/post/debt-collection-agency-v...

Maybe a PB court in the summer and a hot tub on the court in the winter? 

A fun thing I do: I host board games night every week to meet and connect with strangers. 

I'm particularly passionate about starting my journey and finding the best markets, but above most having fun and gaining experience along the way! 

Sorry this post is so long, no need to reply unless it's interesting or a fun thought experiment for you.
