After a long hiatus, Jonathan is stepping back into the short-term rental market.

On this solo episode of Zen and the Art of Real Estate Investing, Jonathan explains why and where he decided to get back into the STR game. You’ll hear the criteria he used to narrow down markets and how he determined Black Mountain, North Carolina, suited what he was looking for. Jonathan also shares why he likes short-term rentals, which you can use for your own enjoyment outside of the busy season.

One of the reasons Jonathan put an offer on the property he chose was its design and the ability to add amenities to make the property more attractive for renters. He explains why becoming an asset to your community and collaborating with other STR owners in your market is valuable. You’ll hear why Jonathan is considering developing more properties clustered near his purchase in Black Mountain if it goes well, the generational impact he hopes it will have for his kids, and why short-term rentals don’t suit every personality.

This episode reveals Jonathan’s personal strategy for purchasing a short-term rental. With his 30+ years of experience in this industry, he outlines what you may also want to consider.
