Becca-Thanks for explaining this.  

Currently it has this large single-family home that I am running as a STR (https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/1124648152156916536).

How do I go about handling this situation?

Very interested in Rentals and wholesaling. im very excited to join this site - and would love to talk and learn more from you , I'm always eager to learn and meet new people . while I've been trying to get into the real estate world for a few years now - it's been a little bit tough, especially knowing where to start and how to go about it .

We know this because we stopped and asked the those tenants questions about rent, time of stay etc.

This is a great place to learn and to connect with people so take advantage of all the great resources.

#1 This website is a great reference point for figuring out what each area is like. https://www.areavibes.com/It gives you a total LIVABILITY score for each street and zip code. 

I think, for now, I will focus on a long-term lease if this idea turns into reality. 

This kind of plays into the booking issue many have alluded to here.

In hindsight, this probably wasn't the right way to look at this, but we were counting on the cash flow from the rentals to offset some of the mortgage payments on our current home.
