Reaching out to the BP community as I'm considering turning of the units in a duplex I own into a STR. This unit is located near children's hospital in Schumacher place. I've hesitated as I'm unqure what to expect for topline revenue in the area. Looking to see if anyone in the BP community is willing to share.
Average Daily Rent
Monthly / Annual Topline Revenue
Challenges with STR in this neighborhood
Any pointers for someone considering entering STR market in Columbus
Where is Schumacher? The only Schumacher I know is a battery charger.
Are you saying that you don't know everything?
Im ignert.
But competent. I saw your hot tub, don't be coy!
Fabricating and welding the exchanger was the hardest part. Had to bevel every joint, 80-100 joints. If there wasn't enough heat the weld would leak water. If there was too much heat the weld would burn through.

It is next to German Village. Also, I can see data from looking through airbnb online but curious to hear directly from current owners, landlords, property managers.

Computer algorithms are good for evaluating a market in general, but they won't accurately predict performance of a specific property due to variables that don't fit into a spreadsheet.

Anywhere near childrens is going to be a rather rough area, as I'm sure you know since you already own this unit.. That being said, this could be a gold mine for travel nurses. Not yet an investor myself, but I know the area well. Schumacher place is juuust far enough out from German Village to consider it a prime location for GV travelers. I would go for it but put travel nurses in all caps in the title and maybe even reach out to travel nurse agencies to advertise. Since agencies typically pay for housing, the specific traveler likely won't care about over paying. Just make the unit really secure since it is in such a tough area. Travelers usually sign for about 13 weeks so you're not locked in to a lease like you would with a tennant, and you've furnished the unit so you can charge even more. If after the 13 weeks, you aren't feeling the traveler vibe or str at all, it won't be too much pressure to go back to long term rental. As far as specific monthly revenue and avg daily rent I can't answer but I hope this info helped.
