The reason this is a concern is because now I cannot use my neighbors as comparable properties as they are listed as B2 properties.

Comparing the two, I'd say Albany is always going to be the more popular area.

We are booking out now and should be full up for the most part by April.Our lake house isn't in as well traveled area as yours so it is hard to compare, but maybe ask AirBNB how their search impressions are calculated.

I created my own spreadsheet to compare and identify the performance of the property.

When you have 4 units in one building each year you bump rents up $100 the building now brings in $4800 net higher this adds up fast over time and with single families the ratios are very different.Stocks can be nice and I keep some money in VTI but it is very slow gains compared to my real estate holdings, you are right in how stress free it is.

Conventional wisdom would have said with rates so high (comparatively speaking to where they were) demand and prices would have lessened in more places and more quickly but in many places prices have held steady even as inventory creeps up.

Comparables in the area all over $1M.

If you want to email me directly, great.I can also discuss management fees but that is a very big topic because professional management companies can provide different levels of service (we are just rolling a new one out right now) so the management fee (and other fees) can be different even in the same company let alone compared to another management company.Let me know how I can help you further.

The housing authority also has to approve the monthly rent for the area, this can be constricting if you are leading on comparable market rents when looking to increase rents on renewal.

I'm curious to learn more about the experiences and outcomes of using this approach compared to short-term and long-term rentals.I’d love to understand which strategy might work best for me.
