  • @infoherediaholdings-com I would most definitely be looking to connect with the relocation specialist that work for the company. Keep in mind this is a very difficult thing to do, especially as more people are adopting this so the primary focus should be nurturing relationships with folks with these companies rather than actually getting your house booked. What I mean by that is most people Want to get their properties booked, but aren’t willing to put in work to help the relocation specialist find properties in other markets. That would be the first suggestion that I have is build a relationship by helping one of these individuals in a different market specifically for their client. I would also head over to the websites in your property into their database.

  • Pro tip on searching for travel clinicians. I would head over to indeed.com, type in whatever market you’re in and look for travel, medical professionals, or travel, registered nurses, this will allow you to see what companies are actually hiring for these individuals, that’s why I pick up the phone and dial them and ask how you can house clinicians coming into your market. Furnished finder is also a great space to connect with unmatched leads, which our folks were looking for property, but might not specifically be looking for yours individually, this is where you were able to uncover these that they may have or have a direct conversation to see why they need housing, what company they work for and how long / how many folks on their team may need housing. You can also check out on site called https://www.vivian.com/ this site you can see what companies are hiring as well.

  • @seamus-nally Hmm. I’ve never thought of mid-term rentals having a higher likelihood of “good” tenants. Do you mind sharing how you’ve found mid-term rentals as a solution for Landlords that have struggled finding great tenants?- One of the reasons that I love Mid Term rental so much is because folks that are staying at your property or typically on assignment, which means they have a place to go back to. A mortgage are potentially paying or rent at a different location. This could be travel nurses it could be construction workers working on certain sites within a certain market, there’s a large range of customers to choose from. These folks want to go back to where they live and or reside. I think the biggest upside to not only having good tenants is that the price point is typically higher than long-term rental rates. Which allows you to have best of both worlds, higher cash flow, and tenants or just assignment WANTING to go back home.

  • @jephte22gmail-com thats a great idea! In fact, I think this is one of the best ways to build relationships with potential landlords, especially if you’re looking to cohost which I think 2025 is going to be a massive year for Mid Term rental operators who are thinking just like you are right now. The problem with this is there’s no software the specifically shows a score and that’s where you have to manually go in and do quite a bit of data research to find out how much people are actually earning in the markets. I have a recent YouTube video that I posted specifically on this. Let me post the link down below hopefully this helps you out. https://youtu.be/J7HCAJQ-Vm0?si=7Zb2W35p3r9sm28c

  • @rlrrentalsoutlook-com I do believe that it is important to approach this more as a business to business approach. We are reaching out to companies individually as opposed to sending a large scale google campaign. I would be looking at Furnished finder reaching out directly to unmatched leaves that are on this space, listing on all platforms, such as Airbnb and VRBO. I would be checking to see what is happening in the market that you’re in, is new construction, is there a hotels that have quite a bit of business travelers? I would start to look to see who those companies are maybe even by driving by and taking pictures of work and sending notes for companies the next day and how you can serve them/ allow them to save money and be in a comf place like a home.

  • @jessiepalmviewprops-com What tips do you have to minimize vacancy gaps between tenants? This is a great question! I believe it’s most important if you have the ability to piggyback off the short-term rental space that you’re able to utilize vacancies in between 30 days as short term rentals. This allows you for greater flexibility, please keep in mind if you’re getting involved with Mid Term rentals you have to make sure that you’re not super specific on one avatar, such as insurance relocation, housing, if you’re just waiting for this particular type of guest, it may be very difficult to continue to build that individual focus. I always find it most useful multiple different types of clients in rotation at the same time, think, travel, nurses, temporary housing, business travelers, etc. Also listing on ALL STR platforms and ZIllow is key!

  • @bdw1125yahoo-com students is a tough one! I really believe that it’s best to try to get 10 months upfront if it’s possible. I think it’s also really important to stay flexible especially with students, as a parent of a San Diego State State University I believe it’s important to have flexibility with lease terms. Again, this is just my personal opinion and there’s a lot of folks who push for longer-term student leases.

  • @gschaeffer9778 A mid-term rental (MTR) is a furnished property rented for one to twelve months, typically catering to business travelers, remote workers, traveling nurses, and people in transition (like those relocating or undergoing home renovations). It sits between short-term rentals (Airbnb-style stays) and long-term leases (12+ months).

    MTRs offer higher cash flow than traditional rentals and require less turnover work than short-term stays, making them an attractive investment strategy, especially in markets where short-term rentals face heavy regulations.

  • Screening is identical when it comes to LTR and MTR which is why i think it’s a great transition into MTR from LTR.

  • @ava How much more (percentage wise) can you typically charge monthly for a MTR? Is there a specific formula or tool you use? Thanks in advance! – i’m typically looking to charge at least 2X long-term rental rates. It really just depends on the market and what it will accept. 1.5 is totally acceptable in a lot of markets but my goal is to always shoot for 2x LTR rate
