While short-term rentals in areas like Kissimmee, Florida, can pay for themselves and offer lifestyle benefits, the ROI typically doesn’t match what I see from my traditional portfolio of long-term rentals in North Texas.That said, short-term rentals can still be a great choice, especially if you're drawn to the area and the opportunity to combine personal use with investment income.

Just for the record I bought my property in Ocala in 2017 for about $145k (3/2) and it had survived 2 hurricanes, appreciated $100k+ and has rented very well so she wasn’t remotely close to being correct. fast forward a year or two later and I got an email that Wagner had split from Jean and “borrowed” all her contacts and they are no longer associated with anything he markets.
