On this week’s episode, Avery is joined by Michael Chang, a seasoned short-term rental investor who manages 38 properties across Philadelphia, the Smoky Mountains, and the Catskills using both ownership and arbitrage strategies. Michael shares how he's scaled efficiently by leveraging technology like HelloHost.ai and VA teams, and why differentiation and guest experience are critical to success in today’s competitive landscape. He dives into the importance of investing in quality properties and intentional amenities, while also discussing how market dynamics are evolving in both metro and vacation markets.
