Hey @Trace Adams, Finding a property that cash flows with today's interest rates in Tampa is tough.

They had a discounted price for participants of that webinar.

We are also getting a forgiving loan of 30k for the duration of 10 years from the county for 1 unit if we rent out the 1-bed basement unit to a household with income less than 100k and at the rate defined by the city )(~1183+ utilities) for a 1 bed unit.

After doing this, I then run the property through Airdna.co and/or Mashvisor.com Both of these tools will give you projections of what type of rental rates, price per night, bookings, occupancy, seasonal variations, etc.

Does anyone have a recommendation to a insurance carrier who has good rates?

Craft a polished Airbnb listing with stunning photos, detailed descriptions, clear guidelines, competitive rates, and enticing perks.When running your Airbnb, the key is to focus on making sure guests have a great experience.

Most of it is upfront, there are insurers in Raleigh that can get you a better rate for an LLC.

@Jeremy Rosen I am a little interested in STR but have concerns about occupancy rate, chaos from being in the same building as the renters, and the capital to not only buy, but also, furnish the STR. 

The family upgrade, the "just because" bigger home buyer, the empty nester downgrades, the 2nd home, etc are choosing to wait and see, due to news of inflation and interest rates.

However, the lodging tax is NOT included in this average daily rate.
