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.

@Desiree Board For your mix of long-term rentals (LTRs), short-term rentals (STRs), and house flipping, an LLC is ideal for liability protection and pass-through taxation.

Instead of paying into someone else’s property, you could be using that allowance to finance your own real estate investment.In Germany, you have access to a stable market with long-term growth potential, and U.S. service members and government civilians have unique advantages here.

As per their terms of use, "The Site is provided solely for your personal noncommercial use."

If not, at least make sure that you get a term sheet.

What are some terms that would appeal to an investor?

Hey @Eric Andersen, so there are a lot of regs in the DFW area.https://www.fortworthtexas.gov/short-term-rentalsRentals are not allowed in residential districts: A-#, AR, B, R1, R2, CR, C, D, UR.Dallas recently banned STRs in single family homes but there was an injunction that blocked it.

We operate a real estate, mortgage, and property management firm dedicated exclusively to Short Term Rental Investments.

Thus it's often more profitable to find long-term tenant than squeezing out every rental dollar you can. - RentReady repairs & vacancies between tenants can blow any projected ROIs.2) Warren Buffet - go where others aren't.
