Both of these are in vacation destination markets and every property in the HOA is an STR in both scenarios.  

Since I made this post, I spoke with a PM down in destin/pcb and they are seeing 30 percent decline in revenues.

Agent left Friday on cruise or something w/o internet access, and team member and I can't find the form or form number to sign.

We were talking about this exact scenario tonight with him on the National REIA Conf/Cruise.

I have traveled to Detroit in the last two years more than ever destination in my life (I must take 2 flights, 7 hr and 3 hr duration each EVERY MONTH).

Definitely not a vacation destination (aside from checking out the wood chipper at the visitors center). 

The kids or grandkids who inherit the houses either don't live in the area or they live in the area and don't want to (or can't afford) to repair the houses, and mostly they just want to sell and get enough to take the family on a cruise.

Anywhere in vermont is fine.We're looking for places with lots of people, that are generally popular destinations for snowboarders and skiers.Ive heard sugarbush so far.

Land owners can employ a forester to perform a timber cruise to get a stumpage valuation.
