Here in Idaho, there are many lake front homes that get their water directly from the lake.

Purchase price: $312,000 Cash invested: $52,000 High-demand neighborhood in Lake Nokomis in Minneapolis.

Look at Lake county   not the east side of the lake but the west side..

Other cities like Milwaukee, Salt Lake City, Portland, Tampa-St.

Here's a quick summary:Manchester: STR demand could come from business travelers, especially near Hartford.Canton: Lower demand unless near outdoor recreation areas.Southington: Strong option with year-round tourists (skiing, Lake Compounce).Bristol: Good potential with ESPN and tourist attractions.Berlin: May have less demand unless near major highways.Focus on properties near attractions or business centers to keep occupancy high.

Hey @Devin Bost, so if I need to ship something direct, I just ship it to my lake house and my neighbor will go and put it in the garage for me.I then let my cleaner know about whatever it is, usually toiletries and the like, so she can put them away.I am about 7 hours away from our rental so I do drive over 2-3 times a year to take a look, make small repairs and stock up stuff.

I invest in eastern Kern County (mostly near Lake Isabella, Kernville). 

Most don't have power.I have a lot of LTRs that where miraculously untouched except for minor stuff.Our Lake House never lost power.

., we have a 2700sqft 4/3 lake house.We charge $250 to the guests and pay $300 to our cleaner.Now we are out of town by about 36 miles so the cleaner has to drive an hour each way so she charges us more. 

BLACK SWAN. quick question.
