Investing in Tiny Homes for short term rentals

Today we are going to talk about a hot topic, and that is investing in tiny homes for short term rentals. My guest is Nashville investor, Cindy Maxson. Cindy has a wealth of experience when it comes to real estate investing. She has completed over a dozen flips and two new construction projects. Cindy also got her real estate license within the past year.  

What she discovered along the way was that she wasn’t a fan of long term rentals.  However, she did discover her passion for short term rentals after converting a vacant, run-down boarding house into her first Airbnb on the second floor of what would become her personal residence.  Cindy’s most recent project is investing in a tiny home for a short term rental.
