A MFU 8-plex would provide an interesting opportunity;normal rent on 4vacation rent on the other 4Of course the VR half would have to be furnished and need onsite assistance, but VR units typically get a full month's rent for just a one week stay. 

If you are trying to rent a home for $1,000 when the market rent is $800 - then, you will have a high VR and opposite holds true.Overall, however, I think saying 20% is way off - even for warzones  and especially for this area.  

I manage VR in BB and my call volume has tripled. 

Id love to hear from the VR crowd.Where is this by the way?

We're using Proper Insurance for our VR's.  

Short term agents call us and employ heavy sales tactics to get us to list as a VR, but we ran numbers and don't see it as a viable model, but that may change. 

So even though it is 10% commission the inspectors/handymen will be costly when you add up all their service calls for guests issues/inspections etc.Vacasa(largest VR company in the nation) may service your area as well as Turnkey Vacation Rentals(my previous company).

They both have been long terms rentals in the past but i found that vr is better and the upkeep is better. 

They aren't making any more Earth, and until they do, it's a finite commodity.Earth, the one thing government and the Federal Reserve can't print more of.And for the futurists out there, don't worry in 20 years we're all going to be living off a Basic Universal Income and be living off of robotics and AI.See you in the VR world, my fellow freaks and geeks.
