Since you mentioned a construction site injury in your initial post, the best way to proactively avoid premises liability claims is by keeping a clean worksite.

I was always interested in dipping my toes in the short term rental game.

Yes many places taken but not all land is developed , still many plots left passed Rosa nearing the lagoon and on the street on opposite site of beach. 

One of my favorite authors, Nicholas Nassim Taleb, sold me on the concept of Skin in the Game and holding all pundits accountable for prior predictions, myself included. 

Oops, game over, you lost.

I find that some sites have better calendars than others.

I went to a learn-on-the-site program that our local REIA had recently.  3BR/3BA house, owner is probably in 145K after fix up (I know the purchase price, don't know what was spent to get it ready after purchase) and a handful of years later it's now worth 190K. 

I feel in real estate if one is truly involved in it these are two of the most important sites utilized.

Its a numbers game. 

Keeping things hush-hush from the on-site staff?
