The tourist high season has arrived, so we'll have plenty of demand to accommodate us.

Now to be fair and balanced like fox news I have met folks at these events that paid the 30k  during evening break and a glass of wine i would ask them what brought you here..

I went to Poland in December last year as a tourist.

Funny because I’m a physician trying to get to retirement with STRs-not sure if it’s going to pan out but being in a city with lots of tourists is helpful.

There will always be demand in the market (it's not like some covid markets that could disappear as vacation destinations almost entirely over the next decade), and the regulation risk is as near to zero as you can get in this industry so long as you buy in the approved tourist zones (again, compared to some smaller/less mature markets where they could outlaw STRs tomorrow).For short period cash flow there are better options. 

Are you getting married or do you like wine? 

This airbnb was already furnished all I did was spend money on a couch and some other things the home needed like wine glasses or extra towels.

Short-term rentals in tourist-heavy areas can also outperform traditional rentals.

Yet the growth in tourists to the area is still solid.  

Magnolia has an incredible restaurant in another part of Waco, they bought a historic hotel that they are currently renovating, they bought an actual castle in the heart of the city that they are currently renovating, they own one of the largest real estate brokerage firms in the city that continues to serve the real estate market, and they themselves own several Magnolia short term rental properties that tourists can rent nightly to have the full Magnolia experience.
