There are markets where housing prices are very affordable (even with higher interest rates) but still attract many visitors (Big college football towns or internationally known universities, Gainesville, South Bend).

I just received my first booking from Airbnb today for a pricey football game weekend.

I definitely considered the possibility of doing STR, but I like the concept of LTR more just because when it’s not football season I could see getting bookings as a difficulty.

Its hard to find time to cold call while in college, as I have classes and also football.

I just finished my football career at the University of Kentucky and I recently became a real estate agent in Northern Kentucky (with plans to get my Ohio license to practice in Cincinnati as well).

(Schools are the worst offenders; high schools have giant football stadiums that are used for a handful of home games each year.) 

Visited a bunch and been to some football games!
