This popular advice really irks me.

You'll also need to be listed on more than just Airbnb, and they are the only platform that allows multiple checking accounts listed.

AirBNB is a platform, a STR is the rental.

PadSplit has developed a platform that aligns incentives among residents, property owners, and communities to make affordable housing possible for the private market.

Listing your properties on platforms like LoopNet or Crexi can be worth it!

I've been told that Haysville is popular for the Meth.  

Furnished Finder is a good idea, even if the fit with travel nurses hasn’t been ideal—it might be worth exploring other platforms for mid-term renters or marketing directly to local families in need of temporary housing.One thought: consider offering seasonal promotions or themed packages to draw in more guests, like holiday stays or discounts for longer weekends.

It is an awesome platform and has been so fruitful in my journey in real estate and investing.

Focus on STR-friendly areas like Newburgh or Highland Lakes, and use platforms like AirDNA to assess revenue potential.

At the time I never thought of it as something that would be a rental or a REI platform.
