Hi-

So, as a side biz I bought two vacation homes and most recently a short term rental property, which I'm almost finished renovating and about to put on the market in a couple weeks!

One of my vacation homes is in Eden, UT. right next to a few ski resorts and in mountain biking/boating/hiking country! We're in the slow season now, so I'm trying to think of ways to market this particular home! My beach house is doing great and rented out non-stop, in fact I have a hard time trying to stay there myself, because it's usually booked out 3-4 months.

I've hired my 16 year old son (who's a super genius at coding, programming, etc. He was contacted by Forbes a couple months ago too, because of a coding type program that he developed...I'm so proud of my kid... I just had to brag about him on here :smile2:) He is also completely bored out of his mind, being out of school less than two weeks, so I've put him to work for me. Which is a win-win as I am absolutely swamped with my main business in OR!)

The reason for this post, is to ask ideas on how to market this particular home. Right now he is posting ads on outdoor blogs/forums, researching community activities and posting on those sites, he recently made a TikTok account for this home, I also have a FB and IG account....just trying to think outside the box and come up with creative ways to get it rented out, especially now that it's the slow season!

Thanks in advance for your ideas!
