Great advise! I would like to self manage, my only hurdle was the cleaners. The calendar is the easy part. Thanks!

Thanks, that's what I figured. I saw that they had cleaner referrals. Is 25% the going rate for managing STR's that also handle the cleaning? And do those managers get your listing the visibility that Evolve would? I'm a first time out of state investor and have yet to use a property manager.

I'm curious to know if the 10-15% fee (being low for STR) is worth it. Are the properties being looked after and cleaned properly? It looks like they take care of everything.

Curious to see responses. What is more lucrative in a Midwest or southern market, with prices in the $300k's for STR's, college football or vacation spots and where. Looking for not overly saturated.

I've been looking for turnkey properties to invest in (first timer) in Anywhere, USA for around $200-300k for the STR market. My focus has been on University towns with football. I've been checking out South bend. I live in California and will be using PM company.

I can afford an overhead, when not rented of about $1000 per month.


Is it better to buy a condo or house? Is maintenance on a "solid" house cheaper than expensive HOA fees?

For my first property, is it A: better to pay cash and see how it cash flows or always use loans and save money for down payment and other investments?

What percentage is a good C on C return?

If I go with Notre Dame, how much can I get per night for home games on a 2/2 house?

I’m honestly not great with numbers, which is where Airtics and Airdna come in. I’ve been waffling over vacation destinations, being just one season and Uni’s with football teams, have been deep dive researching this for a couple of months and keep chasing different cities. I’m starting to feel analysis paralysis and could use all of the guiding you’re will to share with me!

I'm just now looking into turn key STR in Southbend. Still a good investment today? It looks like the market is growing and ROI potential is around 24% after doing some lite Airtics numbers.
