Here are some key strategies to consider to help you stand out, maximize your occupancy rate, and boost your cash flow.First and foremost, invest in properties short distances from popular vacation spots like famous beaches, golf courses, and locations with great weather all year.

Google the term "Google Vacation Rentals".

It looks like the STR regulations are fairly easy to navigate and it seems to be a popular vacation destination.

@Candor RealSure anytime - we’ve been vacationing in the eastern and western White Mountains for 20+ years, and can answer any questions you have about that market.

@Jeff Ebert I've really enjoyed working with Declan McGonigal with MyBeach Vacation Rentals. 

We place vacation rentals and many other properties which have been recently renovated and purchased at distressed prices.

While I am surprised at that, I also think it is the proper way to view real estate.I always go back to my first vacation rental purchase as an example:  In 2005, I bought a beautiful, 2-acre creek-side cabin in Cosby (near Gatlinburg) for $240,000. 

I've come across platforms like mykey, HomeAway, and TurnKey Vacation Rentals.

I’ve vacationed in CMDX and loved it.

So far 100% of the time I have gotten tenants to vacate by explaining the consequence without paying $0.01.
