Post: Most investors overlook Midterm Rentals

Most investors overlook Midterm Rentals (MTRs) — but they can be a game-changer. 🚀

With MTRs, you’re not stuck with the heavy turnover of short-term rentals or the razor-thin margins of long-term tenants. Instead, you get:

✅ Higher cash flow than traditional long-term rentals

✅ Lower vacancy risk compared to short-term rentals

✅ Reliable tenants like traveling nurses, corporate relocations, and digital nomads

It’s the best of both worlds: less stress, consistent income, and tenants who value a well-maintained space.

I coach investors and landlords who want to start or scale their midterm rental strategy — from setting up your unit, marketing it on the right platforms, to building a sustainable system that frees up your time while increasing your returns.

If you’ve been curious about MTRs or want to know how it could fit into your current investing strategy, let’s connect.

Post: Rent a personal residence for extra cashflow?

You’re thinking about this the right way. If your current home can truly gross ~$3,000/mo as a mid-term rental, you’re looking at about $1,500/mo in potential cashflow after the mortgage. Even if you rent a smaller place for $500, you’d still net an extra ~$1,000/mo — that’s a solid return and a strategy a lot of early investors use to scale faster.

Mid-term rentals (travel nurses, corporate relocations, professionals on assignment) tend to pay well, stay longer, and take good care of the property compared to short-term guests. The main things to factor in are setup costs (furnishing), utilities, and budgeting for some vacancy.

Longer term, the ADU option could be the best of both worlds: a smaller home for yourself plus a consistent cashflowing asset next door. But if your goal right now is to maximize cashflow and accelerate into your next property, turning your current house into a mid-term rental while lowering your personal expenses makes a lot of sense.

Post: Midterm Rental and Corporate Housing Arbitrage

Most people think you need to own property to make rental income.

Not with midterm rental and corporate housing arbitrage..

Here’s the play:

➡️ Lease a 3+ bedroom house for $2,500/month

➡️ Legally sublease it to relocating families for $5,000/month

That’s $2,500/month in cash flow (before utilities).

With utilities ranging $300–$500/month, your net cash flow is still $2,000–$2,200/month.

That’s $24,000–$26,400 a year per house from a property you don’t even own.

This isn’t about chasing tourists.

It’s about providing real housing at 2–3x the profit of long-term rentals — without the headaches of Airbnb.

I teach people how to do this step by step, just like I’ve done myself:

✅ Securing landlord partnerships

✅ Setting up properties the right way

✅ Attracting reliable tenants on autopilot
