Hey @Corbin Wright, so personally I look in vacation markets only.Beach, lake, mountains, skiing etc.

There is not the risk of HOAs changing the rules like in other locations, it's a true vacation market with very few full time residents. 

To identify demand hotspots for vacation rentals, we will use a two-step process: First, we will plot on a map all of the Airbnb listings on the island.Then, we will remove listings from this map that have received fewer than 30 reviews in the previous 12 months.Thirty reviews—why?

-- and then we look closely, and see that A dropped some hit as soon as Fannie dropped it, but B is still holding onto it so the mid-level manager (5 levels above who you get to speak to as a general consumer) can take a fancier vacation this year.The cash out and 2-4 unit hits haven't changed in the last couple years, you still will not get the rate you see advertised everywhere, for a cash out 2-4 unit, since the advertisements are all for rate/term SFR 740+ FICO <75% LTV, etc, the perfect scenario that rarely pans out in reality. 

Yes I'm going to call a lawyer but it is 4:00 a.m. and I will probably post notice for her to vacate.

Great location between Summit county and Grand county activities, two of the most vacationed counties in Colorado.

We vacationed in your area the past three summers and stayed in Edisto once and St Helena twice. 

If your investor-friendly-agent has other clients or is on vacation, you may not be able to submit an offer as timely as you would if you could do it yourself.

If the cash is more of an issue than the appearance you can always tackle the project down the road while on a vacation. 

I've been wondering when the decline in occupancy and revenue might start to cull the herd of vacation rental owners.
