Airbnb with an RV/Trailer

Hi everyone! I’m Zack Martinez and this is my first time posting on BP. So to my question. I’ve found a deal (15k) on a mostly refurbished old military truck that is being made livable. It runs and functions and am going to see it on Tuesday. My thought it was that if I picked it up at a good enough price that I could turn it into an AIRBNB and it would have a WOW factor, because it’s a military truck. In the area that I would AIRBNB it I would easily get 200+ a night for it and I believe more. Does anyone have any advice or ideas? Thank you!!

That's a neat idea.  Find people that are doing short-term rentals in your area and pick their brain.  Are you going to manage it?  If so have a maintenance person and a cleaning crew on stand by.  Get professional photos and stage the place with quality furnishings.  Find people in the area that are doing what you want to do and learn from them.  

It seems like you are pretty confident in your numbers, what is holding you back from pulling the trigger?
