As a Certified Pool Operator, if you would allow me to add my two cents about the heater and pool cleaner issue, that pool heater should have lasted for sooooo much longer than 3 years. If I were to guess what happened to have to replace the entire heater is the chemistry of the pool was corrosive and ate away at the heat exchanger. I would definitely recommend getting a pool cleaner who will check the chemistry and balance it at least twice a month. Also, for sure when the pool is not heated keep it at a specific temp above 65°F otherwise you could be doing more damage to the heater if it is being raised by more than 25 °F in one go. Hope this helps

She stated in the video she pays a pool guy. Is that person coming to their pool and not balancing the chemistry? Nah.

Normal pool service in California is weekly where all chemicals are balanced. Considering it’s Palm Springs and an air bnb it probably needs to be serviced twice a week in the summer unless it’s a salt pool. $250 doesn’t sound too bad to me. I know in a previous summary of hers I saw she didn’t seem to understand the filter cleaning concept. I wouldn’t compare an air bnb to a neighbors pool that will have a much lower bather load.
Shelby never disappoints with the transparency, love it! 💛

I always appreciate that Shelby is smart, transparent, relatable and down to earth. Also not defensive when it comes to criticism. Favourite KZreadr by far!!

Great video. I'm glad to see you did better this year. My husband and I met Dad and Mom Church today. They were very gracious when I recognized them. It must seem weird to them to learn that a 70 year old former Realtor follows their daughters on KZread. 😂 However, I am entertained and informed by you both. Thanks for being here!!!
Small tip - an accountant could use accrual methods to accurate assess profitability in situations like this, where the money comes and goes with different timing than it was really earned.

Yess her increase in total net worth as of 2023 end vs. 2022 end would also be a much more insightful number than profit esp for a startup venture 😊

Does accrual method calculates more exact appreciation and equity increase? If yes, then didn't she mention it near end of video?
I love that you addressed the ethics of air bnb when advising if someone should get into it or not. 👏🏻
"You can't sleep in your stock market portfolio. You can't have friends over to it." Funny and so true. I love the transparency of these annual reports!

I thought the same thing but I changed my mind when I noticed there is no more snow available at my place when ppl are actually available. I literally go there only once a year and it is way too far for my friends 😢. I will buy something for my residence, cash only though.
@shelby I’m impressed! This series, the production, your research and sharing numbers with your honest thoughts on both your applied experience and the market… well done. This is the kind of content I’m here for!
I LOVE the transparency! I wish we saw more of this. It’s so helpful. Thank you Shelby!
Great job, Shelby! I love how you are making incremental changes each year to make the property more profitable! I love that you get to use the house as well. It is SO adorable!
Thank you so much for always putting these together! It’s really interesting to see these numbers every year and appreciate you being so transparent!!
Congratulations, Shelby! My solar business finally made a profit in 2023 too. It was a good year! Here's to a better 2024!
I absolutely love the last part of the video, speaking on the resentment in the market rn for investors turning property in rentals. The options to build to add to inventory and just the transparency on that comment. That's what I love about this channel. Information is always given to us, which creates trust in your following❤❤😊
Congrats on making a profit this year! I love how you shared shots of your Excel or Google sheets with all your numbers - as always, I love the transparency!
Thanks for the update! I love following along on your journey!
I bought a cabin in the Smokies in early 2022, and I love your Palm Spring updates because we have very similar numbers and goals with the property! I have the same trend with bookings, used the first year to update the property and learn the market. I've self managed up until last week and hired a local property management group to deal with the day-to-day. Cheers, 2024 will be another year of good appreciation, principal paydown and depreciation for no income taxes
I always enjoy your videos, but as a small business owner myself these yearly recaps are some of my favorites. Congrats and keep up the good work. ❤
Always enjoy seeing updates on the Airbnb! Congrats on making a profit in 2023! Home Equity is big too.
So helpful. Love the transparency. Glad that it is working out for you and your family.
Love your vids Shelby. The transparency and complete breakdown of costs is pretty unmatched in today's KZread ecosystem. 👌Actually extremely helpful to future millennial homebuyers like me.
LOVE the transparency! So helpful to hear. Loving all your videos lately.🤗🙌🏼
That was SO informative!! And the cherry on top was the professional production. Your ethical stand on family homes being snatched up for short stays was on point! Well done. Thank you for sharing your wealth of knowledge.
I appreciate this video because it's thoughtful, honest and detailed.!
love the transparency and really happy for you w/ all of that equity appreciation!
This is a great outcome. Congratulations. Equity gained and appreciation is good enough. Any positive cash flow is just icing on the cake along with personal use.
You break it down so well and make it easy to for me and my adhd to understand lol You would be a great teacher. I would definitely take your masterclass!
I appreciate the honest reflection of Airbnb’s place in the housing market. I personally have only bad experiences with the Airbnb next door to my home. So I’m thankful you present not only the financials, but also the ethics. The Airbnb next door came in as a party house and none of the neighbors are happy about it being here. The owner has over 15 properties, which is sad that these are no longer available as homes for people to live in.
Congrats to making a profit this last year. So great that you are learning so much about reducing expenses and sharing it with others.
If the gas pool heater fails again swap to a heat pump system (electric) and then use your free solar to heat the pool.
I love these videos you make and show us the breakdown.
Having watched this process from the start, I love these annual updates!
Shelby, this vlog is so informative! You've always given us transparency. I love your home and location! I wish that you could rent it out unlimited times per year! It was so.nice seeing your mom and dad! 😎🌴
This is such a helpful video. Thank you for sharing, Shelby!
Thanks for mentioning about new construction! As someone who lives in a touristy area it most definitely affects the housing market when someone makes a regular home into an Airbnb!
Appreciate the transparency. Look forward to yearly earnings video as well.
Love this! So much great information in this video!!
❤ your hard work paid off Shelby!
This is really interesting! Thank you for my sharing. My husband and I enjoy learning from you!
Can’t wait to see the solar panel video!! 🎉 so amazing!
I learned so much from this video! Thank you Shelby.
That capital appreciation is fantastic. Suuuper lucky timing on the home purchase - property values in Palm Springs and the rest of the Coachella Valley went up so much from 2021 to 2022!
Congrats Shelby!🎈🎈🎈
Inspiring content Shelby, keep it up!
I’m not even interested in owning and Airbnb but I watched the whole thing. Love this kind of videos where people are honest about finances
love the transparency! I bought in Joshua Tree back in 2020 and after a ton of remodeling, I decided against the short term rental route.I mostly used it myself and shared with some friends. I am finally prepared to list it as a longterm rental. We'll see how it goes...
We had a great first year for our STR and I was surprised to see how low our profit margin was after all of our expenses. I appreciate that you mentioned the house appreciation as a plus tough, and like your family we use our location as well and really enjoy it. Overall it's a ton of work for us and I'd probably make more money having a long term annual renter in there but my wife and I enjoy being hosts in our lake side cottages and allowing people to come to the area. I also respect your candidness about pivoting pricing expectations with this past years economy. Great honest video!
Another great video! I love your videos so much!!
Yay for positive cash flow! I have also found the appreciation/equity gain and personal enjoyment much bigger returns
Your transparency is so inspiring!
Nice insights Shelby 👍looking forward to the effects of the solar panels 🤞
So glad you went for solar Shelby!!! you will not regret the investment. Our install is around the same size as yours and they paid for themselves in ~8 months and that's in the PNW! you should get way more sun than we do in Palm Springs :) Would love an in-depth video going over your total costs and examining your savings over time.
Shelby, I really loved this video and I'm sorry you are getting hate over you owning a beautiful property that people away from Palm Springs can always come to and really enjoy the wonderful scenery of of Palm Springs!
An insightful journey into the financial realities of Airbnb hosting, providing valuable perspectives on the challenges and successes faced in the second year. A must-watch for anyone in the short-term rental space.
'BETTER TO LOWER THE PRICE THAN NO ONE STAY THERE AT ALL ' I wish everyone thought like that Shelby ❤ luv you n your videos : )
Great video! Thanks for all the insights :)
Love these updates ❤
Tip: Have you considered a Tesla analysis to add PowerWalls to your solar? You get a 30% tax credit this year, and only buy power from the grid when its cheaper and get emergency power in a storm. (You could add a Tesla wall charger to attract EV renters).
WOOOOOO SO READY for this video
Yo. This was so educational, I learned a lot.
bravo on making a profit that's great . yes cash buyer is the best policy these days . glad your trying to cut costs as well . thanks for posting
Now to just wait and watch Graham video when it comes out
You always have great presentation on your videos from your main channel. This channel is better because I can relate to the videos more
Great job managing the property and turning a profit in year 2!
Cool to hear that you finally got solar - looking forward to seeing that video. (It seems like SCE will shortly start crediting you based on the new Net Billing Tariff which definitely adds some complexity.) Was the new pool heater a gas heater like the original? As a few other people here have mentioned, it seems like the way to go would be an electric heat-pump pool heater programmed to run at midday from otherwise-exported solar.
Love this info. I agree if you are going to buy a vacation home to rent out, find a place you love as well so you can get many years of enjoyment from it. We chose Hawaii and love having our little place there. ❤
As a short term rental owner as too we’ve lost money on cash flow the last two years but the appreciation and personal use has completely made it worth it as well!
Wow you're killing it! Nice!
Love these videos!
Does anyone else also stay and watch all of the ending ads so that Shelby gets a little bit more from ad revenue or just me? LMFAO I do it on purpose even if I am right beside my device that I’m watching on. Thanks so much for sharing Shelby, always love your videos.
Hi shelby, you should really look into installing aerothermal heat pumps for the pool. It's really energy efficient, especially with solar panels, and it's considered renewable energy, so maybe you have some extra taxes writeoffs? Don't know how that works in palm springs tbh, just give it a thought jn case it might work for you!
Hi Shelby, can you make a video about how KZread video views have gone down for most creators across the board, and how you being a creator, and or others deal with the lower ad revenue? And maybe even strategies used to make enough money in these conditions? Or at least how it’s dealt with? I am not a creator, but am genuinely curious just based on the trend I see watching a lot of KZread videos from lots of people when I have spare time.
Can’t wait to hear all about the solar panels!!!
Good information, thank you. Good luck.🙂
Sheiby i hope the best for your airbnb
Omg thanks so much for sharing 💛
Thank you for sharing, Shelby!! I own a small airbnb that is ski in ski out in Panorama in BC 🇨🇦 if you ever want a little getaway 😉
Always very interesting videos
I love your videos Shelby. You should consider someday maybe teaching business/economics at a College someday.
Love this!
Congrats on the year over year performance. Great butterfly home!
I always message before finishing the video. lol. I’m glad to see you added solar. Should make a difference..
Shelby you mentioned solar pool heater in your blog. Have you considered adding a solar heater as a passive just always working, with the main pool heater as a booster or to heat what solar cannot. Also there are so many ways to make your own solar pool heater and for so cheap. Black hose laid on roof with a small pump. A quick diy project that pays back.
So thoughtful, thank you.
Cool! Keep it up Jasmin!
Looking forward to the yearly income breakdown this year!
projected Profits for 2024: 2.4x. Also incredible video Shelby!
Congrats on turning a profit Shelby! 👏 low key wana use this video as a template for my "how much I made in first year video"

I make sure not to miss these types of videos of yours. And congratulations for making a profit this year🎉🎉
Thanks for the insights into renting. Years ago, I gave up on the headaches of renting. In hindsight I should have rented premium units like yours, to get better tenants.
It’s so tough right now with the economy, inflation, and the growing public distain for AirBnB. Keep on keeping on!
Love this 😎👍
Excellent advice.
The last 13 minutes of honesty was pure gold. People need to realize that at today’s interest rates it simply does not make sense to buy a house and make it a short term rental. Not to mention the other things she mentions about taking a housing away from someone needing to buy a home for themselves to live in.
Fantastic vlog, ❤
Investing in Airbnb properties has been a lucrative venture for me. 🏡💰 It's like having your own mini-hotel empire that generates passive income month after month. By carefully selecting the right locations and providing top-notch hospitality, my Airbnb investments have consistently outperformed traditional real estate. I wasn't financially free until my 40s, and I'm still in my 40s. I've got 3 Airbnb's already, earn on a monthly basis through passive income, and achieved 3 out of 5 goals. Investing was the wise decision I made.

I wholeheartedly recommend Regina Louise Collaro, a distinguished financial advisor based in the US. Her collaboration with an international organization has been pivotal in my financial success. Regina's expert guidance has not only supported me consistently from educational investments to planning for retirement, but it has also played a critical role in significantly enhancing my wealth. Finding the right financial consultant is as vital as choosing the right life partner-both decisions shape your future profoundly. I feel incredibly fortunate to have Regina as my financial consultant, who has truly transformed my financial landscape and helped me thrive financially😊

This is a shocker seeing Regina Louise Collaro being mentioned here. I always had mixed feelings about hiring a lnvestment advisor. For the record, I started working with Alex in 2018, and he manages about 70% of my lnvestments, while I manage the other 30%. My philosophy is that I care more about my own money than anyone else, but he made me accept that they have wealth of information on current conditions and future trend
I’m so glad you got a diff internet service! I saw your monthly bill and thought that was way too high!
Great that you made a profit this year and still got 1.5 months use out of the house for your self throughout the year
I love that house! It’s a good long term hold.
The appreciation has been disproportionately fortunate in this period. With these elevated prices, building new sort of pay for itself if you can avoid builders that has just raised prices to match. Like Toll brothers for instance do. I think they have about doubled their construction prices in 3 years. I think they did 2000+sqft homes in santa clarita for 700k for everything around 2019 which is maybe 500k house and you probably pay 1.2 or more today. Lumber is back down to around 2018 level. Salaries haven't doubled.
Shelby, you should look into getting a Home Appliance Insurance plan so that when things break down you are covered.
