As a Pacific Northwest native, I’ve seen firsthand how the region’s unique blend of natural beauty, vibrant cities, and year-round attractions make it an incredible place for short-term rental (STR) investments.

Most also work off of call lists that are incredibly outdated, so anything you do today likely won't have an impact for a while....I received a call from an idiot on Tuesday wanting to know if I would sell a piece of land.

Detroit has been extremely good to me, and if you navigate it the right way, it can be an incredible market to invest in.

Warmer' Winters: While we still experience snow, the winters here are generally milder compared to New York.Growing Market: Nashville is a booming city with an insane housing market, presenting countless opportunities for real estate investment & House Flips.We also seized the opportunity to buy a beautiful foreclosure home for $775k, which is essentially a mansion with incredible value/equity (Worth $1.3M).

I prefer VRBO guests hands down and that they don't interfere with hosts as much as Airbnb, but the app and website are incredibly frustrating, slow, and outdated.

I’m new to the world of real estate but incredibly motivated to learn and grow.

.🔹 Airbnb is Facing Increasing Restrictions:New York City has implemented strict rules requiring hosts to register and be physically present, effectively banning many short-term rentals.Dallas and Atlanta have passed zoning laws banning short-term rentals in residential areas.California cities like San Francisco and Los Angeles are ramping up enforcement with hefty fines for non-compliant listings.🔹 Co-Living is Gaining Legal Ground:Colorado eliminated all restrictions on the number of unrelated adults living together statewide as of July 1, 2024, marking a major victory for co-living advocates.This week, Jacksonville Municipal Court ruled in favor of PadSplit, voiding citations for “illegal boarding houses” on constitutional and fair housing grounds.Cities like all over like Washington D.C. are considering zoning reforms to allow more co-living developments as an answer to the housing crisis.As Airbnb restrictions tighten, co-living is emerging as a scalable and legally sound alternative that balances affordability, tenant stability, and community needs.

Selling means giving up an incredibly cheap cost of capital, especially in an appreciating area like 28277.I direct my investors to 28277 all the time for appreciation-focused plays.

Wondering how I can trade my expertise + experience for income - Building small cost-effective market-based tenant focus groups?
