Cute cabins or lodges the new thing to fix and rent out?

I see a few friends and colleagues fixing up smaller cabins or lodges in, say, TN, VA or MO to rent out. Looks like an awesome plan…

You mean as short term rentals? Hardly a new thing. But they’ve gained a ton of traction since Covid. There’s also a lot of saturation in major markets.

Most would profit if they sold, yes. But are burning capital, especially in the off season months, and contemplating taking small gains on a sale vs trying to ride out others selling and hoping that cashflow will return in the future.

Would you like to vacation in a tiny cabin? I would not, and I won't buy anything I wouldn't mind being stuck with.

That’s what I mean, the aesthetic and ambiance rather than pure size. I know a lot of ppl that do friends trips to these locations and it’s like 6 families with 25-30 ppl…so pretty big lodges.

One constantly is under threat of having land annexed by Israel, but it isn't the one in the peace agreement, and Netanyahu has already said this agreement doesn't alter plans

I’m in Dallas and have been renting for 5 years. I don’t have any savings, but have about 30k in my 401k. Im thinking about leveraging that to buy a condo/or house. Is that a good idea or am I in over my head? I mostly want to, because I’m tired of renting and I’ve read reports that prices will only continue to go up. Although, I will have to pay back the 401k + pay rent, so maybe not a good idea. Advice/resources would be helpful.

My hope is to buy and rent out a apartment while also owning a house and house hacking that by renting part of it out. Trying to understand all the steps, traps, and how to find if it’s a good investment.
