Funishing Costs to Mid-Term Rent in Columbus, OH

Hello!

I own three units near Ohio State University that I have considered converting from LTR to MTR. If anyone currently MTRs in this area, I am curious on how you got started, how you run your operations, and how you furnished your property(own/rent) and what the cost breakdown might be for me to do the same!

My units are all 2 bed and 1 bath. Currently they are leased for the next year, so this gives me the time to really decide on what the right strategy would be moving forward.

Thank you!

Hey Zac, although I'm not near Ohio State university I'm just an hour and half in Cincinnati. We recently furnished our unit for MTR. It's a duplex where we live in half of it. We used a variety of places to furnish it like BidFTA, Amazon, Facebook marketplace..etc. We also asked a lot of friends that were moving if we could use some of their furniture. We also updated flooring so we took out interest free loans to complete those projects. In all we were able to complete this with $5k.
