It is also worth noting that property management is often closer to 30% of gross rent for a short-term rental due to the much more intensive hands-on management compared to a typical 10% for long-term and as such, I agree with recommendations above that medium term rentals may provide the best of both worlds if you are able to tailor proximity to a local need, e.g. hospitals and travel nurses.Again, happy to relay my personal experiences in the area if you're interested.Best of luck,Patrick

Hi Humberto,Within my 20 years of experience, I've seen how creating unique rental experiences can really set your property apart in the short and mid-term rental markets.

I don't have personal recommendations but a Google search of "eviction attorney San Diego" turned up a lot of options.

It's led to incredibly high occupancy rate in the off-season, but I'd rather have a slightly lower occupancy rate in order to reduce wear and tear and leave some weekends open for personal use.I'm at a loss on what to do about this.

While I bring extensive experience in wholesaling, I am constantly eager to expand my knowledge in real estate.If you have any questions or would like to discuss potential collaborations, please feel free to reach out.

I’m not super experience but I do have a couple rentals.

Are there other pathways I should consider, based on my goals and experience?

I would say that markets do not go up indefinitely.The Great Financial Crisis and mortgage crisis was one that comes to mind quickly.Not many people saw that coming including myself.I learned how to do short sales during that period as well as foreclosure prevention.It forced me to learn new skills for a down market and like all crisis experiences you learn a lot about yourself and how to problem solve creatively.To Your Success! 

The FEMA 50% rule does come into play, but we do a lot of ground-up construction, so some investors that do have some new build/heavy rehab experience are tearing down and building back to current codes.

What are some good entry-level jobs that would give me hands-on experience with real estate, whether in sales, property management, or another related field?
