Hey everyone, curious about pros/cons and profitability of renting out a unit long term vs AirBnB. Let’s say it’s a condo downtown in a big city, how do you figure out what’s the better option?

Do your research on local restrictions on short term rentals. I looked into Airbnb’s as an investment option (seaside locations) and many are now limiting short term stays and/or adding short term taxes.

For us it was an easy decision to do STR. It’s a vacation rental and while summer is week to week I looked into what we should do for off season.
In the off season / winter I could get maybe $3,500/mo for LTR, but through STR I could do $10k. Plus with eviction moratoriums it would make me nervous to rent over 30 days.

In this market, STR all the way if it is allowed.

I'm early in my career, managed to save $30K to invest, and want to get my hands dirty with a rental property without too much risk (e.g. no HML/flipping). It sounds like that's a tall order in the NY/CT area given the prices, not to mention whether I'd be able to get a mortgage on anything below $100K, but I figure I'll give it a shot anyway. Any advice on what you might do in my position? Am I being crazy with this idea?
