New Host West Virginia

New Host West Virginia

Hello all, going on forth year of hosting in NJ. Looking at property in the 'New River' area of WV. Any advice on managing properties in multiple states? Will be picking up a small cabin in the area around Sandstone. Im currently operating 3 units in NJ. One single family, and one duplex with 2 STRs. The WV property will be seasonal, the others operate year round. 

Our overall goal is to relocate full time to WV, during the interval we will be operating in two states. 

 

Pretty open ended question but just curious to hear input on how others would approach this general situation. Distance between the two areas is 6 hours. 

 

Cheers!

Michael

Hello! Managing properties in multiple states requires careful planning and organization. Ensure you understand local regulations and taxes in West Virginia (WV) for short-term rentals (STRs). Consider leveraging property management software for bookings and maintenance tracking across states. Establish reliable local contacts for maintenance and emergencies. Prepare for seasonal fluctuations in WV compared to year-round operations in NJ. Good luck with your new cabin in Sandstone.
