Everyone dreams of owning a vacation rental in paradise… but is a tropical Airbnb in Hawaii really the best place to invest?

In this video, I break down two actual (similar) short-term rental listings—one on the Big Island of Hawaii and one in Canton, Ohio—that generate nearly the same gross income.

But the numbers tell a very different story when you compare net cash flow and return on investment.

We’ll look at two real deals side by side—one in Hawaii and one in Ohio—and use tools like AirDNA and Airbnb to compare occupancy rates and nightly pricing. Then I’ll walk you through my full analyzer breakdown for each deal and reveal the surprising difference in long-term financial impact.

One of these properties has 4X the cash-on-cash return—and it's probably not the one you think.

If you're looking to invest in short-term rentals and want the highest possible cash flow, you'll definitely want to check this out.
