  • Building a $37K Land Deal Into a Viral Airbnb

    Building a $37K Land Deal Into a Viral Airbnb
    2026/08/19
    In this episode of the Short-Term Rental Pros Podcast, host Jeremy Werden sits down with Rajan Chida, a 22-year-old entrepreneur and real estate developer documenting his journey of building a short-term rental development from the ground up. Rajan's journey started far outside traditional real estate. While in college, he built a successful shoe-flipping business, saving aggressively until he was able to purchase his first investment property at just 21. Soon after, a partnership with his longtime friend Renzo led him to a much bigger challenge: purchasing 2.5 acres in Virginia for $37,000 and developing a four-unit short-term rental project called Royal Oak Retreat—despite having virtually no development experience. What makes Rajan's story even more interesting is how he has built the entire journey in public. His social following grew from roughly 20,000 followers to more than 185,000, allowing him to attract contractors, mentors, investors, creators, and opportunities simply by documenting the process. Jeremy and Rajan break down what it's really like to develop an STR from scratch, build an audience, and turn attention into a potential business advantage. In this episode, you'll learn: How Rajan went from shoe flipping to real estate investing How he found and evaluated the $37K land opportunity Building a short-term rental development with little prior experience How building in public attracted contractors and experienced mentors The social media hooks and storytelling strategies behind his growth Why documenting the journey can be more powerful than simply promoting the finished product How to use social media to build an audience around a real estate project The challenges of getting financing as young developers Why testing one STR before building an entire development can reduce risk How Rajan plans to turn Royal Oak Retreat into a standalone brand Designing a health-focused guest experience with amenities like saunas, cold plunges, hot tubs, and wellness products Why understanding your unique story and audience can become a competitive advantage Whether you're an aspiring real estate investor, Airbnb host, STR developer, content creator, or entrepreneur, this episode offers a behind-the-scenes look at what happens when you combine real estate, hospitality, social media, and the willingness to build in public.

  • How to Build a Viral Airbnb: Direct Bookings, Social Media & Scaling STRs

    How to Build a Viral Airbnb: Direct Bookings, Social Media & Scaling STRs
    2026/08/12
    In this episode of the Short-Term Rental Pros Podcast, host Jeremy Werden sits down with three standout STR operators and creators: Rajan Chida, Kyle Miklasz, and Ryan Shapiro for an unfiltered conversation about building, marketing, and scaling short-term rental businesses. Rajan Chida shares the story behind Royal Oak Retreat, a luxury cabin project he launched while still in college. After purchasing land for $37,000 and building the first cabin for roughly $380,000 all-in, Rajan has used social media storytelling and influencer marketing to drive significant direct bookings. He also breaks down what he's learned about identifying the right audience, building a personal brand, and turning attention into actual revenue. Kyle Miklasz, founder of Big Sky Barn House and Wild Wild Warehouse, shares how he has built a portfolio of unique Airbnb destinations across eight states. His strategy is anything but traditional—transforming abandoned barns and warehouses into one-of-a-kind experiential stays. Kyle discusses the launch of his latest property in rural Iowa, which generated nearly $300,000 in gross bookings within its first eight weeks, and explains how he uses social media as another distribution channel for his properties. Ryan Shapiro, co-host of the Short-Term Rental Pros Podcast and a luxury co-hosting operator in Northeast Florida, joins the conversation to share his perspective on experiential stays, property management, and the realities of operating a growing STR portfolio. Together, Jeremy, Rajan, Kyle, and Ryan dive into what it really takes to turn unique properties into high-performing short-term rentals. In this episode, you'll learn: How to use social media to generate direct bookings Why having the right audience matters more than follower count How influencer marketing can drive bookings—and where it falls short Building unique STRs in markets that aren't traditional vacation destinations How to design properties with virality and guest experience in mind When it's time to hire help and build operational systems The growing pains that come with scaling an STR portfolio Why operators need to focus on their strengths and delegate the rest How direct bookings can reduce reliance on OTAs The real challenges behind running multiple short-term rentals Whether you're an Airbnb host, property manager, real estate investor, co-host, or aspiring STR entrepreneur, this episode offers a candid look at what it takes to build properties people actually want to book—and a business that can scale beyond the founder. This isn’t a conference. It’s a mastermind. Three days. A small group of STR founders, hosts, and brand builders. Real numbers, real playbooks, and real conversations you won’t find online. Bring your biggest bottleneck. Leave with a plan — and a room of people who will hold you accountable. 🌊 A lakefront retreat, not a conference room. 👉 Apply for a spot: https://www.investstr.com/lake-front-retreat 🎁 Save 25% on BNB Calc Want to make smarter decisions when analyzing potential short-term rental investments?
