My business model in Canada has been 4 months of STR and 8 months of student rentals.

Cities in the Midwest, Great Lakes, and South are gaining attention for their stable local economies and promising home value growth.Buffalo, New York: A Model of Stability:Topping the list is Buffalo, New York, recognized for the steadiness of its home prices and a recent surge in job opportunities relative to new home constructions.Cincinnati's Rapid Home Sales:Cincinnati stands out for its exceptionally fast home sales, with properties going pending in just five to six days for most of 2023, indicating a high demand in the market.New regions take the lead in the housing market.

Is it a good business model?
