Closer to points of interest like tourist attractions, transportation, jobs all typically increases the rents.5.

Also think about:-target market. will you rent to tourists, travelling professionals, college students, etc.?

Workers just need to live outside the city(s) leaving the downtown/touristy areas for tourists.

I totally agree; I have hosted my fair share of travelling nurses in my spots near the Big USC Keck Medical Center, but I also have hosted a couple times now, construction type of people in town for a project, Egyptian tourists one time (not sure how that happened), a professor in town for something or other, one couple who were nurses but who were not actually working as nurses when they stayed there, they were in school of some sort.

We have a piece of property in a tourist place.

Do you know how many US tourists go to the Dominican Republic each year?

It might be beneficial if you can find a realtor that sells STR and see what they can tell you about the tourists that come to the area.

Even those data are not as extensive as what US offers for example but that does not throw the fact that Curaçao is a good or bad investment Island.The market has seen a overall growth of 4,9% for the last decade and the island is a tourist Island that has not develop in his full tourist potential yet.

I've been doing some research and apparently the locals even avoid the beach side during tourist season and I've fallen in love with the little town called Duck, NC or even Corolla where you need a 4x4 to get there

We still have demand, but things slowed down a little in the past few months because of Covid, and because this is not the peak summer season.After Covid, landlords also started to consider different types of short-term renters like traveling nurses instead of just focusing on tourists or city visitors.I like your plan, especially that Tacoma is allowing two ADUs in one house with no-home owner-occupancy requirements.Feel free to reach out if you got questions or comments.
