I've been investing for 10 years and have experience with long-term, mid-term, and short-term rentals. 

Mid-renovation is a different animal, but we've done many of them.

I will say mid rehab properties are a red flag.

@Musarat YusufaliHey Musarat, great question—Austin has strong demand for mid‑term rentals thanks to things like tech relocation and contracting work, but the entry cost and competition are high.

On market ~4–8 weeks in the mid-$700s.Considering a reduction into the high-$710s versus a deeper move toward the low-$710s.

Good points all around — that area can definitely be its own market.

We bought it in mid July. 

But at what point did you consider yourself at a "tipping point" or at a good spot to invest in a 2nd investment property and how did you go about doing so?

Columbus is a great city for what you’re looking to do—there’s strong demand for rentals, and duplexes in solid A/B neighborhoods can perform really well as mid-term rentals.

My goal is to purchase a duplex in a solid A/B neighborhood to operate as a mid-term rental (MTR).I know how important it is to have the right team, so I’d love to connect with investor-friendly real estate agents, property managers, and co-hosts in either market.
