Here’s a focused approach:Expand in High-Yield Markets: Look beyond North Carolina to high-demand short-term rental spots like Nashville or international markets (e.g., Mexico, Costa Rica) for diverse, stable cash flow.Invest in Multi-Family Value-Adds: Consider multi-family properties in growth areas like Texas or Florida where rehab can increase rental income and appreciation.Leverage Trusted International Partners: For global investments, work with local agents familiar with foreign buyer regulations to streamline acquisitions.Use Property Management for Scalability: As you grow, property managers can handle logistics, especially for out-of-state or international assets, so you can focus on new opportunities.For specific market insights or connections, feel free to reach out, I’d be happy to help.Best,Drago

Is anyone doing MTRs in the North San Jose area and using their property both for STRs and MTRs within the same calendar year based on demand, seasonality, etc.?

I can only speak to our market here in Columbus, but MTR is in such demand that I don't see this amenity being a must to keep your occupancy high, I'd go with an outlet. 

Start with neighborhoods that have stable rental demand and long-term appreciation potential.

Analyze each city's rental demand, property prices, and your personal goals to make the best choice.

I work with many professionals who, like you, have a demanding full-time job but still manage to dive into real estate investing.

So this is seeming a lot like a "oh shiit they caught me" freak out and demand to look away, just look away......   

We're mourning the loss of friends and neighbors, some of which haven't been found yet, not to mention favorite places, small businesses, animals, you name it.

There are some towns in the area that could pencil, but Whitefish proper just doesn't math.There is just too much demand from rich people looking for a 2nd home to see any cash flow at all.

I recommend connecting and consulting with an account representative at PadSplit to get their intake and see if they can provide any data on room rental rates/demand.
