When you say online advertising, I assume you mean off-platform? 

Sounds like your target market (or guest avatar) is fisherman/outdoorsy vacationers.

I happen to be a new investor that's gearing up to acquire my first property in the Southeast market(Charlotte and Atlanta) and multifamily was my target, however, I have an open mind and I am interested in what you would suggest as the other ways of getting the 1% rule in the South (which is still achievable).

Look up podcasts by Jesse Vasquez and he talks about how he targets insurance companies.

what kind of clientele are you targeting for extended stays?

My best advice would be to study up on what areas you think you want to target beforehand, so that when you get here, you're ready to go!

If I am right great, wrong it’s ok too as long as I have my business ready to pivot based on what’s going onOne thing I did see yesterday that I thought was interesting was the fed funds rate is targeted to be 4.75% by end of next year (current target - if it’s lower then economy is going worse than anticipated), but back in 2005-2007 ish that’s where the fed funds rate say and rates were in the high 5’s to mid 6’s.

I recommend interviewing local real estate agents and property managers in your target area to gain insights into the market.

Once you find a house that you believe would be a good rental, meaning desirable to your target market of customers (people within a couple of mile radius of the place), and all of the costs of monthly ownership that you can accurately project fall below the rental amounts that you project that you can get from your target customers, then you have a possible business asset that you can use to produce income, and have renters pay down the mortgage, while hopefully it goes up in value at least with the rest of the economy. 

What price point do you plan on targeting for this purchase transaction?
