 Yes I’ve definitely got some good feedback! 

So this STR is not quite breaking even, needs to be booked 3 weekends a month to break even and we haven't quite been doing that. But it was never the plan to be strictly a STR. We bought it for ourselves to use and to build some equity.

I know what your saying about missed opportunity, I haven't had time to give the STR much thought lately and I definitely missed bookings because of it

I have a triplex in Biddeford that’s killing it though! Where is your rental? Small world. 

Btw there are lots of amazing free services and platforms out there cozy.co is fantastic for my LTRs and doesn’t cost me a dime. 

 You must have missed the part where I asked how much it is? 

Why would you want to pay for something if there’s a free equivalent? Never hurts to ask. 

Thanks for answering, and sorry for asking... 

I just signed up for and enabled wheelhouse smart pricing, I hadnt even really considered tapping into mid week bookings with a lower price. 

What is the cost of wheelhose after the free trial? any free alternatives?

Brilliant! Thank you for the guidance and support!! 

I’ve had a snowy picture until recently, maybe should have switched to spring a little earlier. Great ideas!!

Luckily we bought with only pleasure and long term equity in mind, so we’re actually doing much better with the rentals than I planned on. 

I absolutely love the Rimforest neighborhood, very close to Gregory and arrowhead, the most accessible and closer to skiing than arrowhead or crest line , but I see what you’re saying about rental preference and what they search for. And interesting about 3bd 2ba preference too... 

I’m also happy to not have to deal with town ordinances about STRs!

Wow, hands off sounds nice! Hard to imagine it could cover all the expenses including management company? 

What company do you use? 

I had zero bookings in April, and a couple weekends in May. 

Thank you! Yes, we're lucky to have dual seasons. But people in LA have no reason to go up the hill while the weather is perfect at the bottom I guess. 

Yes hopefully some more positive reviews will help. Do you even have your place available during the winter?

We are new, in Rimforest. Had a great, busy winter. Then spring came around and it's been completely dead! I guess I should have lowered the price but wondering how big of a difference other people are seeing between seasons. Luckily summer is here and it's picking back up but it's been basically empty all spring unfortunately, still learning. 

Thanks!

Btw the place is a 2bd 1ba 

Yea, he's very helpful but isn't super familiar with title claims, I've been talking to as many people as possible basically. 

I didn't want any of this, but I have to deal with it unless I want to get totally screwed.
