The one that's short term and don't cost me a lot to initiate/originate.

I’m currently exploring the Short-Term Rental (STR) market in Ft.

Hey all,I have been listening to Bigger Pockets content for maybe 4 years and finally have removed myself from some side hustles, have the capital, and grew the...brains to start real estate investing.QUICK BIO:I am based in New Jersey, I work as a marketing/efficiency consultant, and have 2 avenues of real estate investing:Short-Term Rentals: I have 3 short-term rentals using my parents apts in NJ ( 1 of them just launched in Nov) for the past 2yrs near NYC (1 of them just launched in mid-Nov).

Thanks, I'm looking to get into short term or long term rentals for starters.

Hello Joshua, we invest in West Texas area, all short-term rentals (4 1/2 years experience).

And I also see many questions popping up about running a short term rental business, which to me is more of a business than an investment although it does involve an investment in real estate. 

Everyone we have spoken to only considers short term rent as an option.

Durham on the other hand is a great opportunity for investors seeking more short-term growth, more options, and higher likelihood of cashflow. 

Now take short-term AirBnB properties like one of mine in Miami.

You don't have to fit into a traditional "avatar" box to bring valuable insight, so don't sell yourself short. :)This is especially true if you rely on furnishedfinder.com as your primary lead source (which you shouldn't, but that's another post) as when you make that connection with a prospective resident, you are selling yourself as a landlord as much as you are the property as a place to live.
