I did STR in a duplex starting back in 2017 and managed for others in North Conway, Ive since converted to all long term tenants and happy i did so... unless your property has something unique or a "rare" amenity.... like, sleeps 30, I honestly would not waste any energy on it in the north Conway area. so saturated, and so much big money being invested in the hotels, its tough to match amenities vs cost, and I see travelers trending back towards the hotel style accommodations. granted, for the right price, I'd buy anything and figure out what the best use for it is. use airdna.co for decent data on # of Short term rentals in any particular market. can also identify opportunities. the point of my response.... be careful in STR in any area and always have a plan B. you can change a lot of things about a property, but your cant change your basis!

My fiancé and I are looking to build a 3-4 unit townhome style multifamily in the Knoxville area.

So I'm okay not making the big bucks STR style, but I also don't want to do it at a monthly loss.

We build 3 story suburban walk up styles with no garages.

I would be reluctant if it were a gas station or other environmentally challenged property though).

This time he, the investigator, showed me a door on the second floor was not secured, missing a handle, etc which was the case during renovation, but very hard to access if you had a ladder, and two windows that had old style brackets were not secured.

Changing the tractor's oil in the driveway was another favorite: keeps the dust down in the summer.The developer risk is if that solid ever gets tested (phase one or phase two environmental study) you may have to dispose of it as toxic waste, which is super expensive.

For example, I’m doing three side by side duplexes and it’s costing me $135 psf, but I had to spend an extra $10k per foundation because of bad soil, and the smaller the property the higher the cost psfI’m working on a 28 unit with elevator, demo required, green roof, and it’ll cost me around the same psf as the duplexes.I’m doing three side by side triplexes which are full renovations, basement digout, all new facades, and that’s costing me about $106 psf for construction Non of these numbers include architecture, geotech, MEPS, environmental, utility plan, or finance costs

Now you know why he pays people to write obviously fake reviews from one-time posters which just happen to occur on the same day, in the same writing style with the same buzzwords like "He's a go-giver", and the training is "over-the-top".
