This little area of the U.S. is top tier American country. On a major lake (Lake Champlain), open space, green, close enough to a couple of major cities (Montreal and Burlington), skiing, boating, biking, hikes. It has an avg 6% cap rate. What more could you ask for?

Had an investor ask us to run this Phoenix deal through both STR and LTR that was brought to him by his broker. Neither pencils right now. This is why it’s important to run the numbers before buying.

Just ran this one in San Tan Valley, solid setup. STR shows strong performance (8.5% cap, $1K+/mo cash flow), while LTR still holds around ~4–5% cap. Nice flexibility here

Well now I'm curious how Kona would actually perform in this market. Pulled one of the first properties that popped up. STR actually crushes. LTR is softer, but still solid ~5% cap as a fallback. IMO this is the kind of deal that still works, upside with STR, but not completely exposed if travel softens.

Saw this and pulled the full report in GemHaus. Kona right now: Median price: ~$1.25M Rents: ~$2,800 Cap rate: ~2.2% Days on market: ~294 Sales may be slowing, but the more interesting signal is how long properties are sitting. Longer DOM + flat pricing + rents trending up = shifting leverage. This isn’t a “bad” market, it’s a market where you need to be precise. The opportunity is in understanding the full picture, not just the headline

@amanda_han_cp This is why top-line revenue doesn’t mean much on its own. Once you layer in fees, taxes, and operating costs, the real picture looks very different. Important to run the full deal with assumptions included

If you're an Airbnb host hitting $100K in bookings, congrats. But here's what that actually looks like after the platform and the IRS take their cut. Airbnb fees alone can run you $3,000+. Add income taxes at the top bracket, and you could be handi...

@CharlotteJ59083 100%, it really comes down to the deal. Same market, two properties can perform completely differently depending on how they’re underwritten.

@melefante6 100%, one of the biggest advantages of STRs. But it only really works if the underlying deal pencils. Tax benefits amplify returns, they shouldn’t be the reason the deal works.

Most people don't know this exists. 1. Buy a short-term rental 2. Commission a cost seg study - $8K 3. Accelerate depreciation into year 1 4. Apply losses against W-2 income via the STR loophole Result: $700K+ saved in taxes. One property. One year. 7 figures saved every year across 14.

@llmcgrath Nice listing, Palm Springs STRs can perform really well in the right setups. Always worth running the full deal (STR + LTR + operating costs) before buying to see how it actually holds up.

You’re not wrong. Rates burned a lot of people who bought in 2022–2023, especially newer investors who only underwrote to best-case scenarios. What we’re seeing now are mostly the serious buyers, the ones who actually ran the full deal, factored in downside, and can pivot if needed. Prices have adjusted from the peak, so deals and terms are better… but rates are still keeping everything tight.

I really don't see anyway the housing market pulls out of this without a correction. It's already happening in so many markets, and all of those markets affect other markets. Everyone who was going to buy a second home already, did so it's going to be net sellers. No one is buying investment properties right now, and especially not short term rentals, so that is also net sellers. And as the economy weakens and we see unemployment ticking up, you're only going to have less people traveling, which also affects sales of investment properties as well as home sales in general.

According to Big Island Realtor, Gretchen Osgood, Kona sales (in green) are off to the slowest start since 2010.

@mrbriggens @jimmydean197 Agreed, a lot of sellers in these areas don’t have to move. That said, longer DOM usually means buyers are getting more leverage than it looks on the surface (price, concessions, or terms).

@jimmydean197 @GemHausApp That's an extremely nice area. I don't think that people in that area are desperate to sell. Those houses will likely sit until the owners get a price that makes them happy. But I could be wrong. I prefer Capt Cook and 800k is workable for finding a nice place.

@jimmydean197 Yeah… DOM stretching while prices hold is always an interesting combo.

@LaurenWats55094 I was there in Jan 2020, haven’t been since. Tourist-driven markets tend to move in cycles, demand looks great until it doesn’t.

Stop guessing markets. Now you can scroll anywhere in the U.S. and instantly see rents, cap rates, and performance. This is how you actually find deals.

Ran this deal today, actually cash flows on both sides. STR: ~$994/mo LTR: ~$88/mo STR obviously wins here, but having LTR still work gives you a solid floor. These are the kinds of deals you want, multiple ways to win, depending on how you operate it.

@BiggerPockets 100%, management structure alone can swing deal margins. Self-managing plus direct bookings can boost cash flow significantly. But it only works if the deal works. Always underwrite the full picture, not just gross revenue.

Same house. Same gross. $18K/year difference in what hits your bank account. 1️⃣ Self-management is the first lever. 2️⃣ Direct bookings are the second. Most hosts never pull either one. If you're buying a short term rental in 2026, run these numbers before you close. Not after. Want the full math on the 5 types of STR properties? Download for free here: bit.ly/491NglNhttps:/…

100% the STR loophole is one of the biggest advantages of STRs. Depreciation alone can have massive impact on total return, especially when it’s layered on top of solid underlying numbers.

The STR Loophole in the Shenandoah Valley is a game changer for high earners. Own a cozy 3-bed cabin with a fire pit and use it to offset your W2 income while building real wealth. What’s stopping you from using the STR loophole to grow your wealth?

@ChrisK_STRs Totally agree, gross rev can look great until you actually break down the deal. STRs especially have a lot of hidden drag (management, cleaning, vacancy, capex). If you don’t underwrite it upfront, the “profit” disappears fast.

Gross revenue is a vanity metric; net profit builds real wealth. From a 3-bed Blue Ridge cabin to big projects, focus on the bottom line to keep the fire pit glowing and the portfolio growing. How do you track your real profit? cdn.marblism.com/p0W5m31ghZv.
