Hi everyone!  I am looking into vacation rentals in St. Thomas USVI.  Does anyone have any recommendations, tips, or insight into buying a property to rent out as a vacation rental?  Does anyone have any good places to check for houses on the market or real estate agents they might recommend?

THANKS!

Can someone refer me to some good properties in St. Thomas that would be a good investment with low money down?

Okay I definitely did not notice the Time Share part never mind thanks!

So, this seems like its too good of a deal.  I would only pay $3200 down and an estimated $126.00 Monthly??

Advice, insight, recommendations, comments?

@Belinda Lopez that is exactly my thought process! thank you very much for the insight!

@Javier Marchena that is very true and I will definitely be looking into that.  If there is a minimum sq ft that does not fit the Tiny House model then I will look to buy a vacation rental down there to rent out.  

Can anyone link me to a forum that is about vacation rentals?

The goal is still to build the Tiny House because I believe this movement should continue its trend.  People are looking to live more "simple", especially when on vacation.  Also, why not try it out in the caribbean and see if its for you back home.

@Eric Taylor what do you mean by not making any money?

@Rod F. another great idea, where would you recommend running ads through since I am doing something in the US Virgin Islands

@Account Closed that is a great idea! thank you for your input!

@John Powell wouldn't it be a good return if you could charge $100 minimum a night or even more if the location is prime?  Airbnb has some in not the best locations that go for $100 a night.  Its becoming very trendy and popular for people to reconnect with humanity and what a better way than a tiny house in an exotic get away location.
