Florida, especially the Panhandle (think Destin and Panama City Beach), has been a hot spot for exactly those reasons.What makes these areas appealing:Steady tourist traffic all yearMore affordable than other coastal marketsRegulations that are generally investor-friendlyPlenty of local property management options if you’re not planning to self-manageSince you already know how to create a beautiful space, the next step is learning how to run the numbers and identify areas where STRs actually perform well.

The nuances of commercial valuation (like cap rates, NNN/CAM leases, mixed-use zoning, and tenant negotiations in a commercial context) are distinct from residential, and it wouldn't be appropriate for me to give specific advice on the viability of this as a commercial flip.However, from an investor's perspective, the fact that you've identified an off-market opportunity with a motivated, aging landlord, in a fast-growing area, on a high-traffic street, is incredibly compelling.

While Columbus isn’t a classic vacation destination like the Catskills or Charleston, it’s become a great STR market for events, concerts, business travel, university visits (Ohio State has over 60k students), and hospital traffic.

On a major street and highway corner, perfect market traffic. 

I also like the proximity to the city but I might change my mind after sitting in traffic for 45min+.3.

This is huge - getting a lot of press with this and it is sure to drive lots of traffic in the investing space and investors are gong to be picking up their phones to talk to their CPAs like they were back in 2018-2022.One thing that I am pumped about that is getting far less press than the 100% bonus is the immediate expensing of manufacturing facilities - I am looking at that deeply and hope to put out more info as soon as I have read all elements of the new law.

It's a fair distance to McKinney to drive with a lot of traffic. 

Although I sound like a broken record, traffic is down.

Unique location - some run down properties, some brand new duplexes (for reference I bought my duplex in 2021 for 104k, the one two doors down sold for 424k), college students, crackhead foot traffic, a few bars, people on bikes - you can kind of get the jist.

I'd definitely be interested in the hashtags that you use to get traffic, you can post on here or DM me either way.Thanks again :) Hey Madison, Mid term rentals - #MidTermRental#FurnishedRental#CorporateHousing#TravelNurseHousing#InsuranceHousing#ExtendedStay#RelocationRental#TemporaryHousing#30DayRental#ShortTermRentalLocal Market - (my market, replace with yours)#StPeteRentals#TampaBayHousing#FloridaFurnishedRental#StPetersburgFL#StPeteLiving#TampaTravelNurse#StPeteCorporateHousing#MovingToFlorida#WorkRemoteFromHere#LiveWhereYouVacationAudience Specific - #TravelNurse#RemoteWorkerLife#DigitalNomad#NurseLife#CorporateRelocation#WorkFromAnywhere#BusinessTravelLifeI usually include 10–15 per post, and mix local + audience-specific tags.
