Hospitable Hosts

In this episode of the Hospitable Hosts podcast, we chat with Josh Difani, Licensed Realtor and Owner of Hidden JEM Hosting, offering full-service property management in Northeast Oklahoma, Northwest Arkansas, and Kansas City, KS.
With over a decade of experience in real estate investing and sales, Josh specializes in selling real estate and managing short-term rentals for clients who want to make their investments passive. Currently, Josh manages 26 STR properties and uses Hospitable to streamline operations.
Josh shares how he and his wife first got into short-term rental hosting, why they started managing STR properties for others, their business goals, and how they vet property owners to work with. He also shares what he loves about hosting and what makes their business different.
