Submit offers but put time and energy into situations where it's more likely to get accepted.

Your clientele will be a bit more exclusive but you are competing with established rentals, some by Wyndham that run up to and over $2K/night.I hear anecdotal info from local owners of some of these and they seem happy, but the numbers they through around are small returns.

I’ve been very happy with my successes, and I’ve been able to accept my failures with calm and been able to limit the damage to where the few loses didn’t have a majority pact on my net worth.
