    Man... I made a HUGE mistake and hired Evolve to get me bookings. After 4 weeks they got me ZERO bookings and my calendar was blocked off (to prevent double bookings) starting Sept 1. So I fired them about a week ago. Fortunately I had gotten a couple of longer stays and some smaller bookings for August and we finished with around $23,000 for 7 doors. But Sept had nothing (except for one of my places)... Big. Fat. Goose Egg! As of now, one of my units is on fire (I did not relinquish this one to the Evolve crew) and I have a full house for my 6 plex in Cocoa Beach for Labor Day. But after that is slim pickens (really slow for most of us here in Cocoa Beach). I am grateful I found this video and will implement the notes that I took. Thank you Sean!

One suggestion, though, I feel visual aids for some of what you are explaining could go a long way.

    Hi, Sean! What happened to us in L.A. initially during COVID were cancelations. But soon those cancelations were quickly rebooked by people who were literally marooned in Los Angeles -- or just preferred to stay in Los Angeles than return back to their hometown. So, ultimately we had an abundance of potential booking, many seeking long-term short-term rentals. So that's how COVID played-out for our property in SoCal.

We made $4200 in 6 months (it paid the RV for 12 months) with absolutely no knowledge on how to be successful. This year we’re focusing on being more strategic, hoping some of these tips will help us 🙌🏼

      @@AirbnbAutomated - I want to join your student-base and be your poster-child coming out of Chicago. I have binge watched a TON of your videos and have limited capital to start, but I've been preparing for your mentorship. I have created a Business GMail account, a Business Instagram account, a Business Facebook account and now need help with establishing an LLC so I can do what you do full-time starting (yesterday). I have free time now and not working, so I can jump in. Watching you're "slow season" video and I'm wondering if I should use Chicago as my first property acquisition market or if I should look somewhere across the country. I saw that you started your first property ever for about $4,000.
      That's what I'm looking at, about $4,000 startup. I also seen another video where you say that there are some tips and tricks for possibly getting properties that are already furnished or that have been used as a prior rental arbitrage.
      The big final conclusion here is, that I don't have beyond $4,000 to start up, HOWEVER...I do have cushion funds that I may be willing to use for my first property if it means at least starting off with one major mamajama property. What I mean by MamaJama property...what would it take for me to get one single property that can get me net-profit of $3,000 per month all year round'ish after all is said-and-done? Is the answer to that a $7,000 start-up cost? An $8,000 start-up cost just to hit that $3000k/month (or so)? I'm willing to explore. Perhaps a $1800 to $2000 per month (per unit) net profit would also be great if I then had two of such properties, because then that could potentially be $4/month net. The only curiosity is what it would cost to be your student just to start me off in a matter of a week or so because that mentorship cost will have to also be factored into my overall start-up cost.
      All I know is.....I need this really bad. And fast for private reasons that I can tell you away from this public forum.
      I'm ready now. Just need to know how go start an LLC because I want to market myself as a business entity and scale from there on. We love you so much, bro..... you're an angel on this earth to so many people.

    Hey Sean, great videos! I've got a question for you (and other fine people here), what about STARTING an airbnb rental business during the low season? I'm currently getting my ducks in a row to start my business and would like to get it running soon, say october, but that will be the start of the low season here (low months are very similar to your Philly market). I get that it could be easier for me to pick up properties to start because of lower local demand, but I'm afraid to loose a lot of money during the first months because I won't have the credentials of an establised listing. Thoughts?
