Next, a turnkey Airbnb in Miami with the nearly impossible-to-get Short-Term Rental Certificate of Use already in place, making it plug-and-play for instant income. And finally, a fully remodeled home just 90 minutes outside Denver, offering stunning lake views and easy access to swimming and boating—perfect for year-round bookings. These and more shared exclusively with Investor’s Edge readers.
