My favorite one in the city is hosted by @Brie Schmidt.

She is also co-host of the Cheers to Business podcast.

@Cassidy BurnsI'm going to assume you're just brainstorming, but if you're thinking about implementing tax advice from the radio show host in the Youtube video you posted, please get a second opinion from a tax professional.I only made it through 5 minutes of the video before turning it off. 

In your area, you might consider https://emeraldcoastbyowner.com - a number of hosts that I'm in touch with report good results.I'm further south (Tampa Bay) and also list on https://www.floridarentalbyowners.com/ and https://www.floridarentals.com - have had some inquiries but no bookings yet.I'd also recommend getting your own web site set up so you can accept direct bookings, particularly from repeat guests - we've been doing this for a few years now and our repeat bookings continue to grow year over year, and having a direct-booking option has worked well for us.If you're not interested in setting up your own web site and booking back-end, maybe take a look at https://www.houfy.com/ set up a listing and refer your repeat guests to your Houfy listing.

@David Greene hosts meetups every month in the Bay Area as well as the Sacramento area (which are the ones that I facilitate). 

@Jordan Moorhead, do you still host the Investor meetup in Minneapolis?

Otherwise, consider incorporating lease options, subject to, wraps and a host of other creative financing techniques discussed throughout BP. 

The #2 reason is that hosting on airbnb is free.

I personally think Airbnb is here to stay but it will be limited to corporate arbitragers and homeshare hosts in the cities that don't currently have ordinances due to the bad PR that Airbnb has around it.

I, along with a couple of other folks, help to host the local REIA in Fort Wayne.
