STR Data Lab™ by AirDNA

Scaling Success in Short-Term Rentals with Mike Sjogren


Listen Later

In this episode of the STR Data Lab, Jamie sits down with Mike Sjogren, CEO of STR Secrets. Mike shares his journey from being a CPA with a stable job to building a successful short-term rental business after his son was diagnosed with a rare lung disease. He explains how he transitioned from owning one rental property to managing 82 properties across three states. 


Mike delves into the importance of co-hosting, comparing it to rental arbitrage, and highlights the benefits of co-hosting in terms of scalability and reduced risk. He stresses the significance of having clear goals, suitable property selection, and efficient revenue management. Mike also discusses how his STR Secrets coaching program helps individuals build their rental portfolios and achieve financial independence. 


The conversation covers practical strategies for acquiring properties, optimizing listings, and maintaining high guest satisfaction. Mike emphasizes the need for well-defined standard operating procedures (SOPs) and the importance of surrounding oneself with capable team members. He also sheds light on the changing dynamics of the short-term rental market, particularly post-COVID, and how co-hosting can be a viable path for newcomers and experienced hosts alike. 


Towards the end, Mike shares his vision to help a million people achieve financial independence through short-term rentals and discusses the personalized support provided by STR Secrets. Jamie and Mike conclude with advice on staying focused on one's goals and filtering out distractions.
