Yes, it must be the rent prices, but also there seem to be a lot of 1 or 2 people travelers needing a small place for a short time.

I recently put my STR up as a MTR and found that the best way to price it out was to put on my "traveler hat" and see what was available in the area.

Also, you could explore MTRs as there are a lot of traveling professionals in the area.

Most of my CFO clients for the markets where they own properties, they either 1) grew up in the area, 2) have family and/or friends in the area, or 3) they travel to the market frequently.

I also know a few property managers I can recommend who are responsive and experienced with investors.Let me know when you finalize your travel dates—I’d love to meet up while you’re in town and show you a few options!

Many investors are successfully renting out their ADUs to short term travelers.

Ours is in a rural area with strong seasonality and lots of regional vacation travellers going out for a weekend or maybe a week. 

We have about 22 full-time W2 employees in the office, approximately 40 traveling construction folks -- and managers and maintenance W2 employees at each community we own and operate.

Hopefully grow that to $10k/m in 2025, then JV on deals with my family while traveling.

Have a 2 and 5 year old and trying to balance with my husband and my w2 travel schedule as well!
