I'm starting to think that a lot of rental owners are asking themselves the wrong question. They're asking, "How can I get more rent for this property?" When maybe they SHOULD be asking, "Who else needs to live in this property, and what would THEY pay for it?" Because there are people out there who need furnished housing for 30, 60, 90 days or longer, and they're NOT vacationers. They're families whose homes have burned or flooded, traveling professionals, people relocating for work, and people who are between houses for one reason or another. And they need a place that feels like a HOME, not a hotel room. The interesting thing is that these customers don't necessarily need fancy vacation properties. A regular 3-bedroom house in a regular neighborhood might be EXACTLY what they're looking for. And they might pay considerably more than a regular tenant would. Of course, there's a catch. You have to know how to FIND these customers, how to price the property, how to handle the different expenses and expectations, and how to keep it occupied enough to actually make more money. Which is why I'm talking with Vivian Yip on Real Life Real Estate Investing Radio. Vivian used to manage iPhone launches for Apple, so she knows a thing or two about creating systems that work. Now she applies that thinking to furnished rentals, including a network of over 1,000 properties serving corporate clients and insurance-displaced families. She's also figured out how to mix short-term and mid-term rentals to fill those expensive holes in the calendar, even in a saturated Airbnb market. I want to know how she finds these longer-term guests, how she decides what a property should rent for, what the REAL net profit looks like compared to a regular rental, and whether this is something an ordinary landlord with a couple of houses can actually do. And I especially want to know what mistakes investors make when they assume that a mid-term rental is just an Airbnb with a monthly discount. 🎙️ Got something YOU want to know about mid-term rentals? Send me your questions, because I intend to ask the ones that actually matter to investors. 📻 Listen live at 5 pm eastern at 89.3 FM in the Greater Cincinnati area or online at streamdb3web.securenetsystems.net/cirrusencore/WMKVFM.
