Biggest Advice for Beginner Airbnb & Rental Investor

Jessica Wilson

Posted

Hey everyone. I am eager as hell for my first chance to start investing in real-estate. I have many thoughts and questions. Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts, advice, opinions, etc. I really appreciate it!

I would love to begin my journey with investing in properties for Airbnb & Vrbo. I know this can be a lucrative option for sure which is why I’d love to start this way so I can take my earnings and invest into other and into rentals possibly.

Does anyone prefer Airbnb over Vrbo or vice versa?

Do you guys think the market for short term vacation properties will ever go out of style in the sense of laws being created against them (being phased out sorta)?

How much do you think a first time young person who has never bought a home would need to save for a decent property return investment?

Can I use an FHA Loan for one of these properties?

Do you think it’s smart to mix my portfolio with short term vacation rentals as well as more stable long term rentals?
