Hi,I typically rent my 3-bedroom property through a short-term rental platform, but I was recently contacted by an insurance relocation company looking to place a family in temporary housing while work is done on their home.

Atlanta is a strong multi-family market with a diverse economy, a growing population, and increasing demand for rental properties.

We vacation for free every year, and rent them out while we aren’t there.

Quote from @Tom Enright: Hi Forum, I'm about to close on my first STR and plan on materially participating >100 hours this year as I'll be working on the property and plan to rent it the last 1-2 months of the year.

Rents for 925 per month.

Listen to the audiobook “The One Thing” to help prioritize your time and maximize your outcomes.The cash flow may get wiped out but the tenants are still paying off the mortgages and rents will still continue to rise, so it’s not all bad!

One has been rented out for four years same tenants and the other one is newly acquired and have been trying to find the best platform to market it (furnished finder, Zillow, Airbnb, etc)Would the suggestions from the real estate investors be excessive or something to look into?

Rents have increased significantly but so have housing prices. 

Often he has difficulty collecting the tenants share of the rent.

2024 was the first year I rented out my first home.
