Hello Bigger Pockets community, I'm new here and looking to network with like minded people.

I’ll definitely keep all of this in mind as I explore the area.

Keep in mind though they’re going to want a commission that might be as much as your down payment.

They can handle bookings, cleanings, and guest communication, so you’re not always on call.Also, keep in mind that some areas have specific rules and regulations for short-term rentals, so make sure you understand what’s allowed in any location you're considering.It’s great that you’re eager to learn, and with the right strategy, STRs can definitely help you gain more freedom.

Keep this in mind when calculating potential profitability.Research active and potential competitive rentals in your intended market near Gatlinburg, not just through AirDNA, but searching booking platforms.

Keep in mind they will also spend far more time raising capital and diverting their attention outside of managing the investment which is adverse to your objectives.  

More rental income than a long term rental (LTR) but less than a short term rental (STR) property.One thing to keep in mind is you are responsible for furnishing and maintaining the property and you might also be responsible for utilities. 

If you don’t mind sharing, did you complete the construction of a modular ADU in Anaheim?

I don't mind wholesaling, but most wholesalers think it's the stepping stone to real estate investing.It's actually the opposite.

However, keep in mind that rental income will be taxed as ordinary income, so the more you earn, the higher your taxable income.
