MTR vs STR Indiana

[Justin Melton]

We are in central Indiana. We just purchased a home that my parents are going to stay at a couple months a year. We just put it in Airbnb April 1 and have had 3 bookings and they have all went well but they have all been on the weekend. Also it seems like our area is becoming saturated with STR. We have a mid size university and hospital here. Should I look into MTR instead of STR?

I'd check Furnished Finder and Airbnb 30+ day stays see what's out there and what they are renting for. Could be worth listing and seeing what kind of traction or interest you get. A lot of Mid term rentals are for 90+ days stays so it may be difficult to manage if your parents are also staying there some.
