I'm looking for peeps who do short term rental in the Phoenix metro area, specifically the East Valley. I'd love to hear from you about what that market is like, and what your experience has been with your investments. Am a native to the area, looking at investing in there. Still researching and formulating our strategy and what we want to focus on. Mostly looking at long term rentals up to this point, but as I research a bit, my interest is piqued regarding STR. I'd love to know the following info, if you're willing to share...

Have your revenues taken a hit with the pandemic?

What kind of seasonal fluctuation do you experience?

How much vacancy is realistic to plan for?

Care to drop any hints about good locations for such rentals? Anywhere you definitely want to stay away from?

Anyone having any luck using a property with an Attached Dwelling Unit as their short term rental?

What kind of tenants do you cater to? Generally what are they coming to Phoenix area for?

Are you currently considering getting out of STR? Why?

Any really good peeps or resources to point me to for a good understanding of STR investing?

Any other thoughts you might have if you were to want to convince someone else why going the STR route in this particular area is worth considering?

Looking forward to hearing from some of the BP community on this!

Thanks in advance!
