Host Mark Lumpkin sits down with Stefan St. Marie, founder of Revnest, to unpack how his journey from first-time Airbnb host to tech entrepreneur is helping solve one of the short-term rental industry’s most frustrating pain points: transparency in regulations and property data.

Here’s what you’ll learn in this episode:

• How Stefan turned a wild first guest experience into a thriving property management business
• Why “being a good neighbor” is the foundation of sustainable short-term rental success
• The origin story behind Revnest: a marketplace built to buy and sell STR-ready properties
• How Revnest is changing the game with verified revenue data, instant communication, and regulation insights
• A first look at Revnest’s newest tool: a crowdsourced, constantly updated short-term rental regulation map
• Why this regulation tool could become one of the most powerful resources for STR investors and how you can contribute
• How Stefan’s team is partnering with local experts and brokers to deliver hyper-accurate compliance data at scale
