On this week's episode of Short Term Rental Management, Luke chats with tech professional turned real estate investor Gideon Spencer. Gideon shares his journey from renovating a San Antonio fourplex with his wife to acquiring a 24-key boutique hotel in Solvang, California. He dives into why he favors short-term rentals over long-term tenants, why he hired a VA with a smaller portfolio, and details the structure of his recent $6 million hotel syndication deal. They also discuss raising capital through a 506(b), the operational turnarounds he’s implementing, and his dream of acquiring a nature-immersed landscape hotel next.   How to connect with Gideon: @gideonspencer_    How to connect with Luke: The Short Term Shop - https://theshorttermshop.com/ Follow us on Instagram  Follow us on TikTok Join the Short Term Shop Facebook group Check out the Short Term Shop on YouTube   For more information on how to get into short term rentals, read Avery’s books: Smarter Short Term Rentals - Buy it on Amazon Short-Term Rental, Long-Term Wealth: Your Guide to Analyzing, Buying, and Managing Vacation Properties – Buy it on Amazon
