Medium-Term Renting for Travel Nurses

Hi BiggerPockets Community!

I'm learning more about medium-term rentals specifically for travel nurses, and I find it very interesting. Does anyone have experience/insight to the travel nursing demand in San Antonio? And perhaps which hospitals tend to require those positions?

Any insight is greatly appreciated!

Thank you, Spencer

@Spencer Cuello Hey! Not familiar with san antonio but familar with MTR's. @Nicholas Davaul is correct to visit furnish finder to look at some stats, that is always a great idea. Additionally, do a market/competition analysis of 30+ stays within AirBnB/VRBO, this will give you a understanding of the competition, pricing, amendities, etc. in your area.

Next is research your hospitals, not every hospital is alike, but each have different ratings (Level 1,2,3). Level 1 & 2's provide expansive care for all types of emergencies/traumas/surgies, with a high variety of specifialized departments. These hospitals always attract and are in need of traveling medical professionals. 

The MTR world expands way beyond just nurses but thats a great way to start, and utilizing Furnish Finder is a great platform to get things kicked off. If you want to chat more, connect with me to continue to conversation.

Not all mid term rentals(mtr) are for traveling nurses. Some work better and some worse. Location to hospitals is important, but you would have to check with the hospitals themselves. Some want the long term nurses that they can train and keep, some want temporary type help. 

Also, we have found that they want to be close to the hospital, but not THAT close.

 95% of my guests have not been in the medical field. There's a much larger tenant pool than just traveling nurses. I'm happy to talk more about it!
