ANECDOTE

From PGA Tour To Property Owner

  • Bill Faeth bought a duplex at 19 after a CPA advised investing instead of gambling his winnings.
  • He converted multiple properties to short-term rentals after poor management forced him to take control and improve revenue.
INSIGHT

Buy Proximity, Not Stuff

  • A super property maximizes marketability by buying proximity and views first and spending conservatively.
  • Spend only what creates clear marketing value for your ideal guest and avoid unnecessary high-cost amenities.
ADVICE

Design For One Clear Buyer

  • Identify a clear guest avatar (e.g., Wealthy Wendy) and design the property to match her standards and expectations.
  • Tailor renovations and amenities to reflect what your target booker expects at home to justify a higher ADR.
