My vision includes developing the land into a destination with features like driveways, walking paths, utilities, and unique lodging structures.Here’s my tentative plan1.Place the existing STR in an LLC2.Apply for an SBA small business loan to fund the next steps, including a feasibility study (~$10k+), land clearing, and infrastructure development.While this direction excites me, I’m torn between pursuing this venture and continuing with a more traditional approach—buying one home per year using conventional loans.I’d love to hear your thoughts:•Has anyone transitioned from STRs to glamping or similar ventures?

Instead, Use a partner in a joint venture. 

May affect your ability to work in the financial field, or in any managerial position of a company that’s raising venture capital8.

I do have a JV (joint venture) partner that I do all this through.

Has anyone every worked with or heard anything about a company named Five Stream Ventures? 

I've seen it with my own eyes, my real estate ventures have hit the jackpot thanks to these tactics.Now, let's dive into boosting that revenue through clever fees and rebranding.Charging appropriate fees during the application and move-in process is essential.

Gotta say, the discussions here have been pretty informative, especially with folks like @Taylor L. and Andrew sharing their insights.Looking at your list, I’ve actually known invetors who recently ventured into Memphis and Greensboro.

I would look at this venture as some type of vocation (I.e. plumbing, electrician, framer).

With that said, when you start renting it yourself, under your listing, make sure you stay in it yourself to see what it needs and how it operates.Hope this helps and good luck with you venture!

One of my most profitable STRs ventures is not in a vacation market but it is a unique experience that is within an hour of a major metro hub.
