I am looking into buying a STR on Sanibel Island.

I just did this for an investor in NY for a 2.5 million dollar STR on Indian Rocks Beach and it grosses 400k per year.

I have 2 LTR in Maryville and considered trying STR on one but in the end I didn't want to spend the money to update and furnish it as I wasn't confident it would pay off. 

For instance, I just looked at Orlando FL and if I'm reading it right, it appears that they don't allow STR on residential (R) zoned districts.

I have lots of ideas for luxury STR on lakes is Minnesota and Wisconsin to make them stand out, but struggle with the funds and finding people that want to partner with a first time investor.

In the City of Denver you can use part of your home as an STR, only if it is your primary residence (not secondary/ vacation home). 

Vince added value by furnishing the MIL suite and operating it as a STR on Airbnb.

The new ordinance will limit allowable STR’s to 1% of the home supply, here’s some info: https://www.sandiego.gov/treas...I work for a property management company for long term rentals, but I may be interested in managing an str on the side for experience.

This question I can answer as an avid guest that has booked over 30 STR on the OTA!

It’s always been a dream to owner a STR on the North Shore and it’s why I started investing in real estate in 2019.
