I believe the city will be totally fine w/ STR by the date I have it ready to run, but I could see a slowdown in traffic from tourism.  

The tourism market of Nashville is driven mostly by music and bars.

The Las Vegas Review-Journal reports a perfect storm of factors in Clark County including high unemployment, a high percentage of renters, collapsed travel and tourism industry, expiration of the state's eviction mortarium, (sic) and the end of federal unemployment benefits could result in an eviction wave beginning as early as next month.

It seems a bit out of the way for most of the Nashville tourism but a few of my out of state investors are heavy on Mboro STR.

@Juan Pardo For STRs, you want tourism and also potential business visitors.

There is also a stable entertainment, film, and tourism industry, or was pre-covid.A lot of young professionals choose to live in philadelphia and commute (usually by train) to jobs in montgomery and delaware county. 

Long distance for cashflow is my vote but if you want to gamble on appreciation locally (in the face of declining tourism) that is up to you 😁If you net worth is under 500k... stick to 1-4 unit for now and get some experience first.

Just ask people that lost severely because of oil crashing, a natural disaster that ripped through an area, tourism collapsing, a base shutdown, etc.

In addition, check the STR regulations, tourism data (most tourist destinations will have a department of tourism you can contact, or check the tourist numbers for the major attractions in the area if you can’t get ahold of true tourism numbers).Check the hotel presence.

Las Vegas is heavily dependent on tourism and hospitality which has been hit extremely hard due to the pandemic which concerns me.
