What’s your main focus, or what are you hoping to get out of your journey here?

Focus most of your energy on the actual house, the spread, the team and the execution.

We own a real estate, mortgage, and property management company solely focused on Short Term Rental Investments How did you find this deal and how did you negotiate it?

The great thing about living in a high cost of living area is that your salary / wages are hopefully also very high.If you are a new college grad, I would focus the next 1-3 years on increasing your salary as much as possible(gain new skills, new certifications, change employers, etc).Once you make more money, you can easily get in a position to buy a property on a more frequent basis.Best of luck!

This plays into the affordability issues for tenants by allowing them to live in nicer neighborhoods for less money, yet I get monthly revenue comparable to short-term rentals.I have also shifted my focus to buying better.

My focus is on uncovering properties priced under $800K with the potential to gross six figures annually.

From what I’ve heard in a piece by Forbes, focusing on unique features can lead to higher long-term rental satisfaction... especially if your tenants want a few animals or more outdoor space.

I'd suggest the path of being a HML (Hard Money Lender), focusing on JV's. 

Combining short term rentals and a venue is a huge advantage because guests would not have to travel far and you could offer better rates as part of a event package.My current venue focuses more on baby showers, content creation and birthday celebrations rentals.
