Man as much tourists dollars as that county takes in, more fees are absolutely ridiculous!  

There are tourists now in local neighborhoods that would’ve never been touched ten years ago.

Quick thoughts on the markets you're considering:Knoxville, TN: Growing, affordable, and a strong university presence.Huntsville/Montgomery/Tuscaloosa, AL: Huntsville's got tech, while Montgomery and Tuscaloosa have colleges.Asheville, NC: Popular tourist spot, but competitive and pricey.Akron, OH: Affordable, but keep an eye on the local economy.Irving, TX: Part of DFW, so a big market, but prices are higher.St.

Evening, I am in the process of acquiring a short to mid term rental in the somewhat local vacation/ tourist destinations in my region.

I know Branson is known for golf and Table Rock Lake and people tend to snatch up those condos that come with the amenities but I feel like rentals would be limited to good weather only..there has to be a solid percentage of tourists that enjoy the shows and being in town as much as there are people that enjoy the lake and golfing.  

Look for areas with high tourist demand and strong rental yields, and consider attending real estate seminars to gain insights into the latest trends and strategies.  

However, many people are looking at MTRs now in Charlotte, because Charlotte has a lot of workforce population vs tourists.

Mazatlan is located 20 minutes south, a nice tourist city on the Pacific Ocean known for its Banda music scene and Japanese inspired restaurants.I bought the land in 2022 thinking I would build a vacation home/rental within 2-3 years, but with changing financial priorities, I will not be building or developing anything in Mexico for around 6-7 years from now.

I know this area is very popular and some say over-saturated (I think thats any popular tourist area these days).

San Diego has clear regulations in place, and these areas attract tourists year-round.
