I recommend focusing on homeowners who still have the opportunity to prevent foreclosure you can make a win win situation out of it.

Yes you can make more money if you could time the market but for those who invest long term you eventually will win.

Heads you win, tails you win.

Outside of my insights from data, there are a few things I'd like to pop in here to hopefully take this conversation in a direction that helps us all learn from this and grow in our businesses together, elevate the industry together, find a path to co-exist where each business contributes to the overall industry growth... challenges the other to innovate and create fresh new solutions for customers to win big... and leads towards our industry getting stronger not weaker. 

@Frank PatalanoMaking sure that the deal is a win win!

Congrats on the win - it's always refreshing to read some good news, especially during the tough times people have been going through this past year. 

I could write a book on how to win the lottery and its the equivalent. 

Great design, Airbnb ready, I sold it like a business that earns 2,000 monthly, a win win Lessons learned?

With that being said, you can build a successful STR if you win on two fronts (to simplify it)The real estate side and the hospitality side (operations).The real estate side is buying a very good deal in a market that has a history of vacation rentals in my opinion. 

Good luck in your journey . . . remember slow and steady wins the race and the ones making teh money with many of the courses being hawked are the ones selling the courses (we can attest to that as we made that mistake initially ourselves).
