Real talk: Even though you still love the creativity of residential design, do you find yourself increasingly tired of difficult clients with their never-ending list of demands? If your answer is a resounding—and slightly exhausted—yes, short-term rental (STR) design might be the niche for you. Eliminating the emotional drama that comes with residential work while offering more freedom to source what you think is best, STR opens up a world of possibilities in which the main criteria is to make a project not only beautiful, but profitable too. In this workshop, STR expert and co-founder of Vacation Rental Designers Jessica Duce shares her extensive knowledge about this burgeoning segment of the business and explains what it takes to succeed in it. 

In this class, attendees will learn:
- What STR design is and why you should get into it
- How to find opportunities and get started in STR design
- Tips and tricks for sourcing STR projects
- Insight on STR logistics  

After this class, attendees will have:
- An understanding of the difference between residential and STR design
- Prerequisite knowledge to prepare you for your own STR business
- A road map for connecting with complementary STR clients
