Episode notes
Midterm Rentals Are A Different Tenant Market
- Midterm rentals serve people who are living and working temporarily, not leisure travelers.
- They combine lease stability with higher yields than traditional long-term rentals.
Midterm Market Is Much Bigger Than You Think
- Furnished Finder lists about 300,000 midterm-only rentals and may have nearly twice as many 30+ day listings as Airbnb.
- The category is early-stage and poised to professionalize like short-term rentals did.
Get Started Locally With Arbitrage
- Start local: pick properties near where you live to simplify self-management.
- Consider master leases or arbitrage to enter with far less capital than buying.
