Hi John - 

Welcome to the community. There are great contributors here on BP with a wealth of experience and knowledge. I'm always happy to talk about real estate and talk shop. Best of luck!

I know other properties within walking distance to stadiums in a clean, safe area can be profitable not only for the Super Bowl but other dates, i.e. other home games during the season or other events held at the stadium. Are there other things about the location that would attract an AirBnB customer like convention centers, tourism, etc.?

One way to estimate prices is to register as a consumer on AirBnB and other sites to get an idea of what the competition is doing in terms of pricing during this time. Also, comparing hotel rates during these dates can help provide the data you're looking for. Additionally, parking can be another profit center for these events to consider. 

Best of luck and keep us posted on your progress

I understand this post is a few years old, but was hoping to get your input on sub-metering after having more time to determine the cost/benefit at your multi-family property.

Kind regards,

The marketplace is a good place to start search for property as well as connecting with folks in your area to build relationships to help achieve your goals

Re-run your numbers and if they work at a higher offer price, and/or without contingencies that would keep you up, then move forward. 

This is a great example of understanding the motivations of the seller, and how to provide value as a buyer. If we are all competing on price, then it becomes difficult to differentiate ourselves. However, if we can better understand how we can provide value, then we're able to compete outside of price alone. 

Either way, thank you for sharing your experience because there are many of us that will benefit from your story. Great learning opportunity.
