Here are a few key points to consider:- **Days on Market**: Yes, the days on market have been decreasing.

And, then, as time passes, because the lifetime of the lease decreases, the real value of the property actually decreases towards 0 until the lease gets renewed and there's absolutely no guarantee that it will.

Our market is unlikely to produce outstanding cash flow with the use of a PM and if you are self managing, your cash flow equates to earnings for your efforts.I am hopeful that the high interest rates have had a negative impact on income and that the STR income will improve if rates decrease.  

Hard money lending is a possibility, but that decreases my cash flow.

The property must generate $5,712 ($9,037 - $3,325) more cash flow annually to compensate for the higher operating costs in Texas.Overhead costs have a large impact on cash flow.Property Price GrowthAccording to Zillow:Average San Antonio single Family home prices decreased by 2.9% YoY.Average Las Vegas single-family home prices increased by 6.5% YoY.San Antonio and Other Texas CitiesThe challenge with San Antonio's appreciation and rent growth is its unlimited room for expansion.

I have owned many properties in Westchester over the past 30 years, but it's best to make them fix the permitting or rip it out or use those things as a way to get a better price, which you won't get in Westchester.You only accept as-is bathrooms or basements without permits when you are going to do a full rehab yourself and can get a temporary CO.

If so, have them ask their provider if it will cover temporary housing while repairs are made.2.

And with interest rates decreasing and supply normalizing over the next year or so as the area adjust to the new batch of cabins that came online recently, prices will start to go back up again.   

@Dayana Castellon the only marketing that would make sense is marketing Airbnb & VRBO are NOT covering already.Maybe market directly to insurance companies looking for rentals for their clients needing temporary housing while their fire-damaged home is being repaired.Corporate travel departments might be another option.Hospitals with resident doctor programs.The challenge will be doing this marketing efficiently enough to make it worthwhile.

Not saying there will be issues, but they could move in, decide they hate their new job, or the layout of the house, or trash the place, and they just stay without paying or move out and move on with free temporary housing while they find something better.
