I was going on probably my 5th hour, 108 degree weather (Lake Elsinore) and I thought about that quote, had a drink, and finished the job.

Its located in Avon Lake, OH (a suburb outside of Cleveland).

They cover Orange, Seminole, Lake Osceola, Volusia and Brevard..so there is always something going on. 

I have been trying to look at different lakes, but there are so many and they all seem so similar that it may as well be finding a needle in a haystack.

What we didn't expect is for a black swan event to make the market exponentially unbalanced in the sellers favor.

Agents spend a lot of time, chortle and expense acquiring qualified buyers....they don’t swans to give up 30-50% of the commission they can earn with that buyer. 

I lived in it for a year and then bought a property on the Nevada side of South Lake Tahoe.

If looking elsewhere, some other good areas to consider would be Greenville as mentioned already, also areas near White Rock Lake and Oak Lawn are nice, and probably a little cheaper.

I live in Lake Tahoe which has seen a massive boom due to COVID.  

I have a property under contract in Grand Lake, CO that I am planning on renting as a short term rental.I have found a local property management company that uses Escapia (VRBO's backend) to handle bookings so they do not list on Airbnb.It seems like a huge negative to not be able to support Airbnb.
