On this week’s episode of Short Term Rental Management, Luke recaps BiggerPockets Conference 2025 in Las Vegas—highlighting his and Avery’s sold-out STR bootcamp, a lively panel he participated in and why the city felt unusually packed and pricey. He shares quick takeaways on today’s demand and strategy—skip costly amenity overhauls and double down on service and operations—closing with a cautiously optimistic outlook for the STR market.
