Michael Lentsch

I've owned over 20 Airbnb properties. I strategically sold down to my 5 top performers for maximum profit and minimum stress. My Tahoe property is co-owned with my business partner John Blackburn. I manage everything remotely from California using Hospitable, PriceLabs, and Turno. I built STR Intelligence to share what actually works. No theory, no fluff.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions from aspiring STR investors

It varies by market, but you can get started with as little as 3.5% down using an FHA loan on a property you'll house-hack. My first property required about $15K all-in. The Deal Analyzer will show you exactly what you need for any specific deal.
100%. I've managed 20+ properties at my peak, now scaled to 5 across 2 states from California. The key is having the right tech stack (Hospitable, PriceLabs, Turno) and reliable local teams. My Remote Hosting Playbook covers exactly how to set this up.
A well-analyzed STR can produce 15-30% cash-on-cash returns, compared to 6-10% for traditional long-term rentals. But the deal matters more than the market. That's why I built the Deal Analyzer — so you never buy a dud.
No. The free 7-Step Roadmap breaks down the entire process from zero. Most of my students started with no real estate experience. The tools and templates handle the heavy lifting — you just need to follow the system.
Markets with tourism demand, STR-friendly regulations, and reasonable property prices. I invest in mountain/vacation markets (Big Bear, Tahoe) and suburban markets near military bases and hospitals (Summerville, SC). The key is running the numbers — not chasing hype.
The roadmap gives you the strategy. Coaching gives you me — live deal reviews, personalized advice, and accountability. It's the difference between reading a recipe and having a chef in your kitchen. Spots are limited so I can give real attention to each investor.
