And of course all the events and attractions that draw people to Myrtle Beach are just 20 minutes away.In addition to Murrells Inlet, I would consider the adjacent Surfside Beach... which sits right between Garden City Beach and Myrtle Beach. 

The people listed below have been all over BP and can provide great information

Also, I’ll be in the area for the next two weeks and would love to connect with people in person.

The few people I've talked to don't really have good opinions on it. 

The best way to start is by surrounding yourself with people who are already doing what you’re trying to do.

I am looking for advice from people who have done this in the past.

I’ve considered multifamily or duplexes, but from what I’ve heard, they’re unideal right now, so I’m leaning towards STRs.I’ve put together a list of areas that seem STR-friendly with good tourism appeal, and I’d love to get feedback from people who know the San Antonio market well.

It seems that people are paying very little attention to it.

It was difficult to find reliable cleaners and handymen at first but I have been operating for 2 years now and have found people I like.

I almost never get calls, most people send a message via Vrbo or Airbnb if needed, but it it much more common for them to just instant book with no questions.
