Prospective STR Newbie Investor Saying Hello!

[Katie Craft]

Hi everyone! I'm looking to partner with my brother to get our first STR by the end of this year/early next. I will be the one actively managing the property and doing most of the research, and my brother will act as more of an investor. I am leaning towards regional vacation markets for added stability on our first property.

Just finished Avery's book and am looking to create a giant checklist of to-do's and start analyzing markets. However, any tips on next steps are welcome! Nice to meet you all and looking forward to learning and growing with each other. Feel free to add me!
