Hi Jon from Boyertown, PA-You and your fiancé are interested in buying your first short-term rental and wonder profitable areas to purchase with a budget up to $500,000.I would look at places along the west coast of Michigan, Grand Rapids, Kalamazoo, and near Ann Arbor, MI.It is important to understand the local STR regulations in each community and partner with a property management company that can help your navigate that and manage it well for an excellent guest experience.Don't forget to look into bonus depreciation and doing a cost segregation study to increase the tax benefits of ownership and if you "materially participate" in the management of the property per IRS guidelines it can offset active W-2 income which most real estate cannot.To Your Success!

They can offer valuable insights into the local market, potential rental yields, and specific considerations for a rehab project like the one you're planning.

If we can complete projects faster, we increase IRR and build trust.3) Market Risk- The longer it takes to complete a project, the more exposed you are to market fluctuations.This goes for all things Real Estate - BRRRRs, Flips, New Builds, Rehabs, etc.Real Estate is a wild ride I feel your pain, I've had this happen many times where the project is twice as long.
