I regularly go to Mexico so I know first hand what's going on there. 

Sending a personalized greeting to guests when they book, answering their questions, programming lock codes, logging new bookings in my records and notifying my cleaners of them and any requests for early check in, paying cleaners monthly, ordering supplies, updating my listing descriptions about once a week even if it's just a sentence here or there (helps with rankings on the platforms, esp.

.- You close on December 10th- The property is in great shape and does not need any significant repairs- It only needs some paint touch-up and changing a couple of broken fixtures, which you do yourself- You spend the next week buying furniture, electronics and supplies and installing/arranging everything yourself- You also roll up your sleeves and scrub the toilets and sinks and appliances- You put it on AirBnB/VRBO and have your first guest renting it for the 3 days of Christmas- You second guest rents it for the following weekend and leaves before NYE- You personally clean and restock the place between these two guestsCongrats!

Homes that get more winter weather need a different level of upkeep, but nothing more than a regular home needs that is built for their specific area.

We work with investors regularly.

Supply and demand- if there were demand-, it wouldn't be so cheap.

We focused on 1 and 2 br properties long before MTRs became trendy because they have lower price points, less competition, lower expenses, and while the tenant pool is smaller, so is supply.

Such units are painfully in short supply and sky high demand.

I also find that depending on the tenant, my one Airbnb property has less wear and tear because it's constantly cleaned and maintained versus my other rentals where the families living there settle in and accumulate stuff - which makes it hard to deep clean regularly (to my liking) as well as just the constant daily wear and tear from kids etc.
