With a thriving tourism scene and steady year-round visitors, it’s perfect for short-term and long-term rentals as long as you are choosing an unsaturated asset class.

I just don't look at Rochester as a place that would have a tourism at the scale that Airbnb businesses would do well over long-term rentals.

I guess tourism is an important enough industry there that while they need to limit the short term rentals for local residents, they also need them to provide lower price points for visitors. 

Drivable to the Bay Area, much lower property taxes (that DON'T reassess on the sale), much friendlier tenant/landlord laws, strong population and job growth, strong appreciation, and also anchored by the tourism and wealth of Lake Tahoe. 

That market is recovering, but with covid still taking a stranglehold on the Country and tourism, you need to have the numbers work as a long term rental also.

Also, how do you factor or account for an area/town that experiences lots of seasonal tourism, compared to the town that does not? 

Isn't that basically how the city makes all of it's money is tourism?

Maui, for example, has been a great place to own vacation rentals historically, but we've seen a huge dip in tourism in the wake of the fires.

Post Pandemic, the tourism and jobs continue, but at a lower number and slightly slower pace.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            

There is also alot of tourism tactics being utilized by Oklahoma (we will see if they work actually) to really try to drive the markets around.
