AIE 150: Getting Started in STRs and Getting Direct Bookings
Episode description
In honor of both our 150th Adulting Is Easy podcast episode, our 4th podversary (which was Oct 29), AND Halloween we're replaying our most popular episode from 2022. Even if you listened to it last year, you may want to check it out again. Joe is a great STR operator and we're sure you'll get something great from this one, even on a second listen!
This week, Lauren interviews Joe about his rental business, which includes both long- and short-term rentals (STRs/Airbnbs). Joe makes a great case for having both in your portfolio for diversification purposes, and you can diversify even further if you learn to get direct bookings in addition to Airbnb and Vrbo. He uses a Facebook group to get more direct bookings. If you're wanting to learn more about all aspects of investing in STRs, this is for you!
