Some people treat their STR like a hobby and others treat it like a business.You don’t know the numbers are based on if owners use it 3 months a year themselves, or manage it themselves and have STR knowledge or farm it out to a competent or incompetent property manager.In one area I invest in, the biggest players are all large direct booking sites with hundreds of properties so their revenue doesn’t show up on airDNA, etc.Use conservative numbers and understand your skills in terms of getting a property to be unique, marketing, listing management, etc. or the competency of the PMs you are interviewing.Good luck!

Personally, I feel you should start off with understanding what actual reality is.

My understanding was it needed to be 1 year of steady income to be considered, BUT not a lender, so obvs confirm with them.

I just need to figure out if I should sell my rental now given I dont understand how it benefits me at all.
