Judy Wensloff | Short-Term Rental Specialist | Oakhurst & Yosemite Area Realtor® and Team Leader, eXp Realty of California Founder, Love Yosemite Vacation Rentals I help investors and second-home buyers find, buy, and run short-term rentals near Yosemite National Park. I’m based in Oakhurst and work throughout the Yosemite gateway communities, including Bass Lake, Mariposa, Yosemite West, Wawona, Coarsegold, Ahwahnee, North Fork and Fish Camp. STRs aren’t a side interest for me; they’re my family’s business. My family owns six Airbnbs in the area, and my team owns nine combined. We also own and operate Love Yosemite Vacation Rentals, a local management company that manages about 70 homes from Coarsegold, Oakhurst and Bass Lake up to Yosemite West. That means I see how real properties here perform year-round: which locations book, what guests expect, and what it actually costs to operate. How I help STR buyers: Permits and regulations: I walk clients through Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) permits and local rules in Madera County and Mariposa County, so you know a property can legally operate as a rental before you buy. Realistic numbers: My revenue and expense estimates come from properties we actually manage, not best-case projections, or an algorithm. Management after closing: If you want hands-off ownership, our management company may run the property for you, or help you find the perfect management solution. If you’d rather self-manage, I’ll help you with trusted local cleaners, contractors, and handymen. Choosing the right property: Winter weather, distance to the south entrance, HOA rules, mountain maintenance and zoning all affect income. I help you weigh them. Whether you want a vacation home that pays for itself or a pure investment property, I’ll give you a straight answer on whether a property makes sense.
