On this week's episode, Avery is joined by Heather Meuer, a Missouri-based real estate investor who transitioned from running an auto parts business to building and managing RV parks and glamping resorts. Heather shares how she and her husband turned an abandoned campground into a thriving $7.8M resort in Branson, complete with glamping tents, RV pads, a coffee shop, and pizza kitchen—all designed to elevate the guest experience. She walks through the challenges of securing an SBA loan, tips for working with your spouse, and how creating multiple revenue streams can supercharge a hospitality business.   How to connect with Heather: @roaminghomeheather theembersbranson.com   How to connect with Avery: The Short Term Shop - https://theshorttermshop.com/ www.strquestions.com Follow Avery Carl on Instagram Follow Avery Carl on TikTok Join the Short Term Shop Facebook group Check out the Short Term Shop on YouTube   For more information on how to get into short term rentals, read Avery’s books: Smarter Short Term Rentals - Buy it on Amazon Short-Term Rental, Long-Term Wealth: Your Guide to Analyzing, Buying, and Managing Vacation Properties – Buy it on Amazon
