As a former operator that transitioned to lending I believe that the biggest challenge for newer or newbie investors is making the numbers make sense.

This bodes well for all current STR operators in the region, as well as hopeful investors moving forward. 

Key data points like occupancy rates, ADR trends, and regulatory risks are crucial for investors, and offering a breakdown of operational costs would aid in calculating net income more accurately.
