@Nancy Revill why not do both? Sign up for Airbnb/VRBO and Furnished Finder and connect calendars so that bookings on one platform don't affect the other. Also check out Rabbu to see the STR potential of your address. Good luck and feel free to DM me for further questions!

I never thought of that before! I will definitely look into this option. Thank you so much for the advice!

Look on Vrbo and Airbnb to see if other people have sucessful rentals in your area.

Thanks John! I did see some in our area, but for the most part they are private room rentals. Ours is a whole private basement, but I can't seem to find a similar option on either platform. Would you think that listing as a guest suite would be appropriate?

Hey everyone! We just purchased a new build in February and have an unfinished basement of 800 sq ft. We are in the process of framing out two bedrooms, one full bath, a kitchenette/living room space and a closet for a stackable washer and dryer. We plan to live here as our primary residence and rent out the basement. We are trying to determine whether a STR or a MTR (traveling nurses/professionals) would be a good route in our area. Anyone in Salt Lake County have any experience in these type of rental markets? We are located in West Jordan, west of Bacchus Highway, so I'm concerned we are too far from tourist attractions to be successful in STR.

We are located in a HOA, but the CC&Rs do allow STRs luckily! Any input or tips would be appreciated!
