Are Two Bed Two Bath Condos a Gold Mine?

Welcome to the latest episode of the STR Data Lab! Our guest today is John, CEO and founder of Ohana Stay and Tech Tape. In this episode, John shares his insights and experiences on entrepreneurship, technology, and more. He talks about how his short-term rental business, Ohana Stay, led to the founding of Tech Tape, and how he manages multiple ventures while fighting regulations in Honolulu, Hawaii. As a Cornell graduate, John also shares his experiences with guest lecturing at the university's hospitality school.We also dive into John's experience owning a property in Waikiki during the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite the challenges, John was able to keep his property occupied at around 50-60% occupancy throughout COVID, thanks to low rates and the use of a staffing agency to avoid squatters or other problems. He notes that while things are starting to recover, the market and booking patterns are completely upside down, requiring him to stay on top of what's going on and respond and react accordingly. Stay tuned for an engaging discussion on the travel industry and how technology is transforming it.~~~~
