I thrived during the housing collapse.

-If you're looking for cashflow and don't care about neighborhood, Macon is a cash cow if you're willing to play in the D areas - If you go north of the city outside the perimeter (Roswell, Marietta, Woodstock, even Dallas and Smyrna) those areas are developed and thriving. 

@Nathan G. great question The book “Never Split the Difference” by Chris Voss is amazing 😉 teaches us how to not just be afraid to negotiate but to thrive on this crucial skillAlso Brandon and Josh Book “Investing in Real Estate” is foundational for building our REI gameBest of luck in 2020 BP community!

The ones who will consistently survive and thrive in the STR world, are those running it as a business and who are passionate about it.I would highly suggest you invest as much time as possiblle into how to do it properly.

Thinking about the shortage of affordable rentals in Denver, and all the available land, this sounds like a viable solution.Do you think this type of pop-up rental housing would thrive in your market?

The Bryan-College Station area will continue to thrive simply because of Texas A&M University, the largest school in the country.

Having said that, I agree with @Greg Scott.....you certainly don't have to hit her with it all at once.But I would be clear that a) you are heading in that (market) direction, b) you really appreciate her value as a great tenant, c) you owe it to your business and family to operate a thriving business that makes a fair profit....

Everyone should read his post (4 posts back), that`s what we`re dealing with here, stick your head in the sand if you choose or start making preparations to survive and then thrive.

Tenants can be broken up into mom and pop (single and multi-unit operator), small franchisee (single and multi-unit operator),large franchisee (typically 50 units or more, regional corporate brands( investment grade or private credit non-rated), national brands (investment grade or private credit non-rated).Outer retail center locations on the fringes made up of mainly mom and pop tenants can get crushed because those types of tenants have few reserves and need the money and profits each month to thrive.
