Is a short-term rental better than a long-term rental in Victoria? Adrian talks with Kristopher Montanini and Robert Sauter, co-founders of Rest Coast, about what it really looks like to own and operate a short-term rental on the West Coast.

Kris has been a landlord for 20 years. Rob spent 20+ years in tech and now applies his customer-service and photography background to Rest Coast owners.

In this episode:

• Is long-term renting still worth it after 20 years as a landlord?
• Do short-term rentals really cause less wear and tear?
• What kind of property makes the best short-term rental?
• Can STR income projections change a buyer's decision, and how can Realtors use them?
• What separates a 5-star Airbnb from an average one?
• How do listing photos affect bookings?
• How does a turnover portal and documentation system protect owners?
• Who is a great fit for short-term rentals, and who should skip it?
• How should investors think about BC and Victoria regulations?
• Where is the short-term rental market heading?
• What's the first step, and the biggest mistake, for new investors?

Plus a rapid fire round to close things out.
