This video I explain exactly how much my shipping container home "The Pacific Bin" made on Airbnb in it's first month. I break down all my income sources and expenses and how running a short term rental in 2023 might not be as profitable as you'd think.

100% all of this would of been “not worth it” if you didn’t do all the social media. If anyone else thinks this is a good idea, think again. If you did this without social it would be a nightmare
@justinrink6755
@justinrink6755 Год назад
Plenty of equity is still gained from this type of project without the social media side of it and if you enjoy building, it can still be plenty worth it. I think it just comes down to what types of passions people have in their lives and what they want to pursue

@@justinrink6755 why is the main RU-vid liking this? It isn’t a jabbed and him disagreeing is a naive/stubborn move. If he disagrees with thinking this isn’t a “bad financial move” without blasting you’re project on social, extreme stubbornness. He has well over 700k-800k+ into this, and that’s him doing majority of the labor work which saved hundreds of thousands. But he believes he could sell for “1mill+” hard to dispute or argue but I would think around the $550k-750k max range. Especially with property going down. If it wasn’t for the social exposer, yes this would be a loss if you’re outcome is only financial gains which is the point. And no other reasonings/Munda things like “life lessons gain from this counts for more” only taking about financial gains/lose. Kind of shock he agrees he would of been a good decision/financial move even without social exposure. Denial isn’t just a river lol but no hate just bringing up a valid point. Extremely jealous/amazed about ur tenacity,motivation and all above. Just stating these compliments to make my point/topic only about “if this would work financially without big social media exposure”

Justin! What up dude, it's been a bit. You mainly doing long term rentals or you starting to dabble in the STR game? As for the property taxes... that's one benefit to building new construction. The county assumes it takes 16 months so if you can build it quicker you only have to pay taxes on the land as if it's vacant undeveloped land. So next year it's going to go up by a chunk 😅

@@devonloerop i bought a property at the wineries and partly flipped it to accommodate atleast 10ppl. focused on the home experience for customers, amenities and family entertainment, luxury without spending on expensive brands going for $1k/night on peak days. i feel like you exerted too much effort building the home but understated your bnb rates. i gave myself 3mos to run the flip and launched in time for the peak season. the equity you built is assumed IF you sell it right now. in reality, your real financial cashflow is running red. i love the effort but as a fellow bnb person, i suggest focus on why you want your customers spending the night at your build, what to do, entertain, and give them one heck of an unforgettable experience, and ALWAYS be 2 steps ahead of what people need. and then UP your rates. boost that bottom line man. go get it!

I feel like the social media and ad revenue was a must for this. It's really awesome but so expensive and the upkeep with cleaners and replacing stuff like cleaning staff , furniture and septic systems will likely add another 500k over the next 15 years which is where I think you could break even if the hype stays here and books out around 75%-80% of the time. The ad revenue and the lumpsome if you sell at the right time or after the 15 years will be worth it if everything goes smooth and people are always filling dates

Hosting is a difficult business and having consistency on cleanings and catching damage BEFORE a new guest checks in will be a big challenge. The ski season is also ending; I'd be interested to see if you get more ski visitors or more hiking/fishing guests. You have built something relatively unique for the area though and that will help attract guests.
@devonloerop

mm That doesn't count, you paid 12 month expenses under a 1 month revenue. The expense that hit me the hardest was the cleaning bill's. Thats harsh, close to 25% of your gross. Your doing fine bro, early stages, you have 100% occupancy. You may not be in the serious money yet, but you have a ton of equity and a property that will be paying itself off easily and able to liquidate if it doesnt. GG. Imagine someone who did the same with out the social media presence and was running at 40-60% occupancy. Which you classified as a bear market but i would consider a median.

And even if the hype dies down, $50k probably isn’t worth the stress and time. Wish this dude the best though. It was an awesome project.

Considering that you spent 550k on that house with a good income of 50 to 60k as you said (even though I think that's a little bit low, we'll see in a year) in less than 10 years you'll have your money back. For me Its worth it, I can see you in your 40s with a good income related on the amount of hours spent on that type of work, I'm quite sure that you have another job and maybe with the money earned in the next years you are gonna make more investments, so going from paycheck to paycheck is not a problem anymore
