I don’t have a ton of experience, 4 units right now and actively looking for more however I would be willing to try and host something if we can get some traction to get some networking going.

I'm an investor and co-host in Dallas, TX--- and that's where I live. 

We have a PMS which also doubles as channel manager and is also integrated into our site. 

There is a good one in the Stamford area hosted by Brandon Chisholm.  

Ive been hosting a monthly meetup the past 3 years, and it's been a great resource for myself and other investors. 

There are a few different areas I like to target, depending on your goals and budget.We also host a monthly real estate networking event -- "NorCal Real Estate Mastermind" -- First Wednesday of every month at 6pm at Lucid Winery on R St.

If your current lender can’t accommodate you, explore STR-focused lenders like Host Financial or Lima One Capital, or consider bridge loans to buy time while you build your rental history.

It would make a great area for hosting, and I think it would add a significant value to the Airbnb clients.

Have you ever heard of host GPO?
