Julie Davies opened her family's first STR in 1986 and most recent unit in 2024, while managing and consulting for hotels and long-term care facilities, and teaching university courses. In 2015, city officials noticed Julie's excellent STR management, happy neighbors, and 5-star reviews. They asked her to write and teach a course about STR laws and best practices. The STR Certification Course and Seminars have been approved through higher education, real estate divisions for CE, and cities requiring STR education for license applicants (and the course receives excellent student reviews). It's listed in "Top Ten" STR and PM education lists internationally. The courses are even offered within degree programs in many universities. Her co-author, Bre Ellis, and associates join Jule in lectures and discussions, enhancing the instruction. Julie and her team are happy to help stabilize this emerging industry through quality education.
