Owner Five Gables Inn & STR Properties
I'm Ryan Edwards, and I've made my mark in the real estate industry with a diverse portfolio that stretches across Pennsylvania, Florida, and Maine, valued at over $10 million. My investment journey has led me to acquire ten properties, with five dedicated to short-term rentals that cater to those seeking a brief escape, and one particularly special project - Five Gables Inn. This boutique hotel not only showcases my knack for hospitality but also my commitment to excellence, boasting a 100% direct booking rate.
Financially, my properties are more than just assets; they're a source of substantial revenue, pulling in about $900,000 each year. But for me, real estate isn't just about the numbers. It's about understanding the pulse of each location, the preferences of guests, and the potential of each property. My success with Five Gables Inn highlights my ability to market effectively, ensuring each guest experiences a personalized stay, which in turn, fosters loyalty and repeat visits.
My approach to real estate goes beyond mere investment. It's about integrating into the fabric of the communities where my properties stand, enhancing local economies, and setting new benchmarks for what hospitality can be. Whether it's through the charm and warmth of Five Gables Inn or the strategic selection and management of my rentals, I've demonstrated that with the right strategy, real estate can be both lucrative and enriching.
I continue to expand my knowledge and portfolio, always looking for the next property that not only promises financial returns but also aligns with my vision of creating spaces where people feel at home, even if it's just for a night. Through this journey, I've learned that real estate is as much about building relationships as it is about building wealth.
