Hello, Everyone! I was wondering if anyone has used the strIQ tool to determine what upgrades and amenities will have the best ROI in your market for an existing STR? I have a two-car garage that is currently not utilized which zip can convert to livablespace and/or addition of amenites. I also have outdoor spaces that can accommodate more amenities. Thank you in advance for the insight!

Hello! Introducing myself. Jeanine Emigh (last name pronounced Amy). I currently have two STR's in Scottsdale. I have been an REI for over 30 years; first with land and raising livestock for a living, rehabbing rentals on the properties. I Opened a gourmet foods store that sold my grass fed beef and lamb, specialty products, catering, breakfast and lunch dishes. After that I pivoted to becoming an administrator, owning and operator of a 6 bed assisted living home. Purchased a SF home, remodeled it and converted the garage to an ADU. (all in 2020!) My pivot to STR's was after selling this. I live in SoCal so the transition to purchase in AZ felt like an easy transition. I can drive in 5 hrs or a 1 1/2 hr flight. I manage the two properties remotely and am currently at Stage 4 to scale. In the next 90 days I plan on learning to analyse deals more proficiently, purchase another property and start co-hosting for clients in SoCal (first one by end of May). Looking forward to this community.🤩

Hey STRiq fam 👋 As fellow operators you know better than anyone what it takes to find, underwrite, and execute a great short-term rental deal. The research, the numbers, the vendor relationships, the design — it's a full-time operation. I've been in the trenches with you and I'm taking the next step. I'm launching the Emigh Capital Group Investment Club — a private real estate lending club focused on STR acquisitions and fix & flip projects. The club is structured to allow members to participate in secured real estate loans backed by real property, with a defined term and structured exit. This is built by an operator, for people who understand what good real estate looks like. If you've ever wanted to participate in deals without doing all the legwork yourself — or if you have capital sitting on the sidelines between your own acquisitions — this is worth a look. I'm hosting a live webinar on July 14th at 5:00 PM PST with Kyle from Fractional to walk through the full structure and answer every question. 👉 Reserve your spot: https://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_CHefcikBRmGtzemfQXPFOA Happy to answer any questions here too — you all know I love talking STR. See you on the 14th! 🏠
