Where is your portfolio located?

Quote from @Michelle Fenn: Is it just my location or are a  great majority of rental listings on Facebook Scams.   

We also own Real Property Management Pulse located in Mission, KS.

To win the STR game, especially if you're a new entrant, the most important aspects are 1) Amenities2) Location3) Property type4) UniquenessAll are geared toward you standing out on Airbnb/VRBOHot tubs, fire pit, bowling alley, pools etc. or being in the best location in an area as well as being to host a large group are all things to help you win.

I would highly recommend you work with someone that is either located in the same state as you, or explicitly says they have experience with your state.

Location!

If they think they have an "Airbnb" Unless they own the publicly traded company, then they only have a STR, or a vacation rental if they have a nice place/location.

Like @Sarah Miller and @Marcy Albrecht said, you can buy places within the city limits but it's still about location. with that said, i'm always looking out for my end game. one of the issues with buying in certain parts of canton is that when you decide you're done, you may not be able to unload your properties.

I'm an investor and agent located just north of you in Wauconda!
