This area definitely gives you good weather year round, summertime gets hot so as long as you're getting systems serviced before then and then in the fall you're usually ok. 

In a hot market, the unobtainable thing is the most valuable.

These fires are so hot even the steel structures melted and burned. 

This is a hot topic, and something I go back & forth on.

Just be the absolute best host you can be for the first year -- communicate clearly and quickly, make sure cleaning is top-notch, make sure all amenities work (hot tub is hot, TV remotes have batteries, etc. etc.)

San Antonio is hot in the summer.I will compare my return on San Diego purchases against any market, but if you plan to buy rent ready, I think many markets will beat San Diego in the short term.  10 years or more out, I suspect few markets will beat San Diego.  

There is a river of hot water by the hotel Tabacon in San Carlos that is an absolutely unique experience.  

As a sidenote I see people doing this and jacking up the price of the home to seller finance to above market value - if you do this you better be VERY clear with your investors that you are writing a $300k loan on a $250k property as if you do not you can get in some serious hot water later on down the line when doing valuations of the company. 

@Kody Smith New Hampshire was just named into the Top 10 Hot Markets for 2025.

From the little I know of San Antonio (I am a wholesaler who specializing in selling STRs nationwide) its not a super hot Airbnb market but the amount you expect for rent sounds pretty conservative.
