In Wisconsin, they are agents as well. 

It attracts traveling nurses, families needing temporary housing, and professionals on short-term projects.If you can offer a comfortable, well-equipped space with good Wi-Fi and parking, you’ll likely see consistent demand.

Paul and the eastern suburbs to Hudson, Wisconsin). 

Use your home field advantage, it's worth at least 20% - even going to Milwaukee (which is a slightly better market) makes you an OOS investor and that more than eats up the small benefit.

Hi Evan from Whitewater, Wisconsin-Great question!

Pick a desirable neighborhood that produces quality tenants.Just to drive the point home, here is what I am personally doing: over the last 7 or 8  years we have gone from investing in basically half of Milwaukee (1.6 million metro area) to only investing in a 20 min zone around where we live.

The demand is usually steady year-round in Chicago for that group.That said, here’s how I’d weigh it:If you go MTR:You’ll need to furnish it properly — not fancy, but turnkey: queen bed in each room, blackout curtains, comfy couch, smart TV, solid Wi-Fi, a stocked kitchen (pots/pans, utensils, coffee maker, toaster), and a simple desk setup.Expect about $4K–$6K upfront to get it guest-ready if you’re starting from scratch.Cleaning and turnover management can be automated (Turno app or a local cleaner), but there’s still some coordination involved.Since you’re near a hospital, list on both Furnished Finder and Airbnb (30+ night stays) — that combo usually keeps you booked.If you go LTR instead:You’ll save yourself the time and mental load of setting up a new system while adjusting to newborn life.Even if the rent’s lower, you’ll get steady income and less stress, which might be worth it right now.Winter leasing in Chicago:Yeah, it’s slower — especially December through February — but MTRs tied to hospitals stay active because medical contracts don’t follow the same seasonality.If this were me?

For our SF in the Milwaukee suburbs, I know if we don't get 10 inquiries per day in the first week, we have missed the mark.
