🔥 STR Classifieds | Fresh Price Reductions and Motivated Sellers
Market shifts are opening new opportunities for informed STR investors.
Featured Inside This Issue
This week’s Top Agent Picks highlight opportunities across Asheville’s mountain region, Indianapolis urban neighborhoods, the Hocking Hills retreat market, Cape San Blas along Florida’s Gulf Coast, and the Smokies.
Several listings show price reductions or seller motivation, while others offer documented rental performance and strong guest demand.
Each property connects you with a vetted STR agent on the ground who understands local regulations, revenue patterns, and neighborhood dynamics. These are operators who know what actually performs, not just what looks good online.
Skip inflated and meaningless gross rev projections.
Confirm real numbers.
Make informed decisions with the right local support.
Invest with intel and confidence.
Happy scouting,
