Today we're welcoming Kendra, a real estate agent and A-frame cabin owner in Lake Almanor, California, who brings a uniquely practical perspective to the world of cabin ownership. From her family's deep roots in real estate investment to managing her own A-frame in an HOA-controlled community, Kendra shares valuable insights on the financial realities of cabin ownership in today's market. We'll explore how she transformed her three-level A-frame with strategic renovations, discovered her unexpected guest demographic, and navigates the challenges of operating a seasonal property that's "in the red" despite what AirDNA might suggest.
Whether you're considering buying a vacation property, curious about the impact of HOA regulations on short-term rentals, or interested in the nuts and bolts of real estate investment strategy, this conversation offers both practical wisdom and honest reflection. We'll dive into everything from the tax advantages of making your children "employees" of your LLC to the surprising disparity between projected and actual rental income, and why thinking long-term might be the smartest approach in today's challenging market.
