Charlotte is a tough market for investors at the moment as we have had a considerable rise in the average price of housing as it has become more popular here. 

On another G.R. house, I have used a program through the city "Get the Lead Out", a somewhat more popular program for some time here. 

I am Texas based so may answers will skew more towards my region but I would leave to hear what are some other areas you may be paying attention to that isn't as popular as some of the main stays (Smokies, Joshua Tree, etc)Mine right now are 1.

From there, there still may be operational issues such as the  property being too seasonal and having a bad weather season or the market simply losing popularity.

Platforms like CINC (Commissions Inc) and BoomTown are popular among realtors for managing lead generation and tracking and often support custom single-property pages too.

The state’s popularity among snowbirds (temporary winter residents) helps support demand in the colder months, allowing for a more stable real estate cycle than in states with harsher winters.Phoenix, for instance, has one of the fastest-growing housing markets in the country, with consistent demand for both primary and secondary residences.

But they are not very popular and usually for larger properties.

This is particularly beneficial in popular tourist areas where demand for short-term lodging is high.Flexibility: Owners can choose when to rent their property, allowing them to use it personally during off-peak times.Support for Local Tourism: STRs provide a unique lodging option for tourists, helping to boost the local economy by attracting visitors who may prefer a home-like stay over traditional hotels.Diversification for Investors: STRs provide real estate investors with an additional income stream, especially if they own properties in tourist-heavy areas.Cons:Strict Regulations and Higher Fees: San Antonio recently updated its STR regulations.

The Hocking Hills is popular for short term rentals but is competitive.

Despite its popularity, very few actually understand the asset class and how to achieve optimal returns.
