In Austin, unless you have something near the lake or hot spot, I would guess you may get at most 2x MTR rates but once you factor in vacancies, increased expenses, and increased time vs 30% to STR manager it doesnt make sense for me for potentially small gain.I started my 1st MTR earlier this year and both are booked through next April with less than 5% vacancy which I artificially set to give me 2-3 dys between guests to turn it over/check for need any repair needs. 

I am a broker at an office in Lake Oswego (so essentially Portland) but I live down in Molalla (east of Woodburn - about 1.25 hours from Corvallis) so in between Salem and Portland - 2 different markets on 2 different MLS's.

Salt Lake Community College, e.g. has a theatre program, but she's really quite interested to get far from Utah as she's on the LGBTQ+ spectrum and Utah isn't very friendly to her politically, socially, etc.I have read https://www.biggerpockets.com/... and thought she could consider a 4 plex in the Bronx, e.g., but maybe the extra stress would be just too much for a Freshman, in a new city, trying to get college done, and worry about owning property.

Hello,  I have been investing in Sebring, Lake Placid and Avon Park for almost 10 years.

It doesn't have the mountains, but it sits on the biggest lake in the world (surface area wise), and has some of the top rated mountain biking and trail networks in the US. 

Looking to connect with fellow investors in the Chautauqua Lake, NY region.
