In any building that allows short term rentals, you will have a majority of the owners doing STR. 

My wife and I are looking into investing in short term rentals in vacation markets surrounding NYC (Catskills, Adirondacks, Poconos, etc) and just wanted to check if anyone here might have some insights they could share.

If you want details, read through pages 15-22 on this document.

Hello, I have my property listed for long term rental in Joshua Tree, CA.

Financial goals: Our current jobs provide for high-income but not a lot of time for active real-estate investing, so our strategy is long-term buy-and-hold with less headache properties.

Call your home insurance agent now, explain the details and file a claim. 

I’d be happy to connect with you more on your scenario to discuss in more detail what you were looking to accomplish.

Sharma,Just a few things on the surface the deal looks great in terms of gained equity for the price plus injected costs to renovate/repair.

That kind of appreciation is wonderful for long term hold investors but it's having a negative effect on investors entering the market. 

Are you more interested in short term rentals (thinking about opportunities to co-host STRs)?
