For me I evaluate a VR on- does it have a basic kitchen so I don't have to eat out all the time- can I walk or easily access public transport (ie how convenient is it to the attractions I want to visit, city centre, beach, etc)- does it have any special character (castle, farmhouse, typical local style)Are there areas outside of Italy that you feel would be good investments?

I usually just bank or reinvest it.Also realize your AirBnB is likely to slow down significantly in the winterI think the question is how are you dealing with 1st time guests when booking through airbnb and other VR sites?  

I still have a few clients, and have started investing in properties myself in VR friendly areas - we now own 4. 

After the second one I decided to take a break and have been buy up raw ground in locations I want to build new VR's. 

Would you be willing to discuss your experience (hoa and state regulations for short term VR, zoning, etc)?

There are also a lot of people who want to own and use a VR and rent it out to offset the cost so they can afford it.  

With any VR you need to check the county first (Summit County), they allow it and let the cities determine the enforcement of permits.

I'm at (1) VR, (2) SFRs, (1) Triplex in 3 yrs. 

Situations that I have stepped into that make life interesting are meth-ed hoarders, crack heads, gangs, porn production, prostitution ring, rats, raccoons, bad remodeling, half finished construction jobs, fire (but not brimstone), flood, heirs that were in prison...good grief..just a whole bunch of trouble. 

My psychology is built to fix up crapshacks and deal with broker-than-broke tenants and clean out the porn collections of morbidly obese evictees.
