Hey everyone,I'm looking to get started in the short-term rental business and could really use some advice.

Do you think it would be a good idea to start performing discount surgeries for people?"

I don't do app development but I was told for most sites and businesses it's a lot of work for low payback.

Hey @Francisco Javier Villanueva,Glad to see you looking for events to get out and meet the people who are active in your area! 

I own the property free and clear and i use the equity as part of my business line of credit.

More people moving to a city is more potential tenants. 

Good to know as I have a property coming on the market and we had one off market offer already all cash but at 10% list price discount (which we most likely will reject).Curious if you think the california fires will assist the market since many of those people need places to live for years and I am guessing some will flee california?

Many, many people have made huge fortunes on SFR's alone.Speak extensively with anyone who invests in RE and do everything you can to pull out why you *shouldn't* do something.

Hey @Keagan Scott, so I don't have any insight into Gary, IN but here is a blurb -"Those looking to rent out their properties for less than 30 days (about 4 and a half weeks) will have to get a permit, pay a one-time $150 fee, and have a city business license.

There's no reason to provide details, though I do let people know if anyone asks that we do not accept bulk up-front rent payments or anything like that because I absolutely do not want a prospective tenant to think that someone else swooped in with a bunch of cash last minute.
