Searching for first STR purchase - Maine, Vermont and/or Poconos

New to Real Estate · NJ · Member since 2024 · 1 post · 0 votes

Hello! My spouse and I are searching for our first STR. We want to purchase in vacation markets we can drive to. We are interested in Maine (the area around Lake Sebago), Vermont (all regions), and the Poconos. Looking to build a team and connect with other members with short term rentals in the same areas.

     Welcome to BP! Seems like a good strategy - know for a fact that there are a lot of great people here on BiggerPockets with good knowledge and advice for these markets!

    Hey Laura, 

    I would love to connect with you! Very familiar with the markets you’re looking into (specifically ME and VT as a grew up going there) and STRs. Sending you a dm to connect!

    Hi Laura, I own two short term rentals on Little Sebago and one in Old Orchard Beach. I do short term rentals during the summer but then rent mid-term from September/October through May. Let me know if you'd like to chat sometime!
