When I was traveling in Europe, Airbnb's often included a bottle of wine.

If you’re near commuter lines to NYC, you can also get tourist income on Airbnb.

More than half of banana imports, America’s most popular fruit by volume, comes in through the ports being struck as of Tuesday morning, according to the American Farm Bureau Federation.Other items I have read that are at risk are: cherries, cocoa, sugar, imported wine, beer and hard liquor.In the spirit of the strike impacting more than just materials and labor directly correlated to real estate, I intentionally posted this in "Off Topic" as I want to get a better understanding of what your concerns are with an ongoing strike.

In certain Colorado markets, especially near popular tourist spots or cities like Colorado Springs & Old Colorado City, STRs have the potential to bring in higher monthly revenue, even if they require more management.

Here's a quick summary:Manchester: STR demand could come from business travelers, especially near Hartford.Canton: Lower demand unless near outdoor recreation areas.Southington: Strong option with year-round tourists (skiing, Lake Compounce).Bristol: Good potential with ESPN and tourist attractions.Berlin: May have less demand unless near major highways.Focus on properties near attractions or business centers to keep occupancy high.

In my free time, I'm a wine/food guy who loves to travel. 

They have called the police on guests (in the middle of the day, for parking over a sidewalk in the driveway, for noise when guests were playing dominoes by the pool and on and on)…one neighbor yelled obscenities at my guests (in front of children), saying, “We don’t want tourists!”

Don’t want to start renting to some wine if I’m not doing it correctly.thank you

The more I talk to investors in other parts of the country the more it seems clear that this is the Achilles heel of New England: too short a tourist season.
