In this episode, I’m joined by Jarrett Chouinard, the founder of Stellar Retreats, who shares his inspiring journey into the short-term rental world. Starting with just one arbitrage unit in Connecticut, Jarrett has grown his business into a thriving operation spanning multiple properties in New York, Rhode Island, and beyond. We’ll dive into his experiences with the challenges of the arbitrage model, how he navigates working with landlords, and the lessons he’s learned about guest demographics and client relationships. Jarrett also shares his approach to technology, systems, and building a team that supports growth. And as if that’s not enough, we’ll also talk about Jarrett's ambitious plans for the future and his entrepreneurial ideas that go beyond short-term rentals. This is a must-listen for anyone looking to learn, grow, and succeed in the short-term rental industry. Let’s get started!
