954 - Short-Term Rental REITs: What They Are And How You Can Invest In Them by John Andrew Entwistle
Short-term rentals (STRs) are the fastest-growing segment in hospitality and have been gaining market share for years. A confluence of factors like robust travel spending from Americans, increasing consumer preference for experiences, and remote work is expected to support 11% CAGR growth in the STR market through 2030. Given the recent growth of STRs, vacation rental investing has become increasingly popular.

In this article, we will explore the fundamentals of REIT investing, the benefits of investing in a vacation rental REIT, and Wander REIT, the first and only STR REIT that can help you reap the benefits of STR investing without the hassle.
