STR's can certainly work in Salem, but are location dependent (ie being in the city for the university or state traffic vs out in the country for wine tourism).

Most of them have invested money into making the venue look nice, provide good seating options, good parking, entertainment options, and ideally, a place that serves beer/wine/etc.

Thank you to Nicolas,Ben, and David for the advice! 

Granite is porous, I’ve had granite tops burned by curling irons, red wine stains, broken chips in it.

Due to the next global economic downturn getting closer; my main focus this year and next will be within international property bonds, wine, bridging deals.

HI BP,I have a client interested in listing a Vineyard in the Willamette Valley and another with an LA based distillery considering listing their properties and assets/businesses for sale. I'm well versed in commercia...

The pro's are we are in pretty decent wine country, about 8-10 minutes from 2 very popular vineyards and around another half dozen smaller ones in the area.We love our home and have a 2.25% interest rate so we don't want to sell it. 

I added a pool table, wine, robes and I provided snacks/water plus other complimentary items.

It gets frustrating when guests are sloppy, messy, spill wine, leave excess trash or put grease down the drain...

The "over-shoot" is in case the cleaners have to focus on or put more effort in cleaning something (Wine Stains, Pet Stains, etc....)2.
