I just get the feeling I can teach anyone to do it...maybe the optimist in me gets in the way of reality, but....

We have an edge as we have no mortgages, good, clean places and we will use that edge to minimize the impact on our business.Hope this doesn't last too much longer but we are aren't very optimistic at the moment.In the meantime, it is survival of the fittest, economically fittest.

I am optimistic.

We're happy with what we've been able to accomplish thus far, but we're also optimistic that we can raise occupancy rates significantly, primarily by building our own website (instead of relying 100% upon the listing sites), and starting an email marketing campaign to former guests/prospects.Surprises thus far:- At least in Austin, which is a 12-month rental market, the term "vacation rental" is a bit of a misnomer.

I'm sure you are trying to be optimistic here, but based on where it is and who will live there, its going to be a struggle to keep this cash flow positive based on your situation.  

I am very excited at the response I am receiving and very optimistic that this will be one of my better campaigns.

Damn I was optimistic!

I'm cautiously optimistic about Ryan.
