Congratulations! It's hard to find a cash flowing rental in this area, but paying all cash certainly helps!

Hey @Brandon Obrien, what's your email?  I'll also add you to our Slack Channel, a great way to connect to people outside of the monthly meetups

@Nick Mehl, there has been a lot of chatter in the meetups about this. It seems a lot of people are experiencing this same thing, while others are having solid bookings throughout the winter. The general sense I'm getting is that Covid saw a tremendous boost in bookings, and now we are getting back to normal. Folks that brought a STR to market within the last 1 to 3 years are shocked by the slow down of bookings while people that had STR prior to Covid enjoyed the Covid boost, but are not nervous about the current slowdown. Also, it seems that people offering more unique experience or properties are not seeing any slowdown at all (river/creek on property, unique build, hot tub, etc).

This is not area specific, but I've got two STRs in Myrtle Beach and I've not seen any slowdown in bookings at all.

Casual group of 5 to 30 people discussing all things real estate. Newbies to advanced investors. STR, MTR, LTR, private lending, new builds, businesses within the industry, dealing with vendors, investment strategy, goals, recommendations, investor friendly realtors, etc. It's all up for discussion! We also have a Slack Channel with over 100 members to discuss things outside the meetup!

3rd Wednesday of the month: 6pm at Hi Wire Brewing in the River Arts

4th Wednesday of the month: 9am at Citizen Vinyl downtown
