30-Day Stay: A Real Estate Investor's Guide to Mastering the Medium-Term Rental

Learn the medium-term rental strategy—all the benefits of investing in Airbnbs without the hassle of turnover or the risk of changing city regulations!

30-Day Stay is a thorough guide to finding and operating a medium-term rental (MTR). The concept is simple and profitable: Instead of fighting short-term rental regulations or sacrificing cash flow to long-term rentals, the host requires a month-long minimum stay in a furnished property and reaps massive profits.

With nearly thirty properties and decades of real estate investing experience between them, authors Zeona McIntyre and Sarah Weaver introduce a powerful yet flexible real estate asset class with entertaining case studies woven in to keep you engaged the whole way through. Discover exactly why this strategy trumps short-term and long-term rentals and learn how to find the right properties in the right markets, supply the right furniture, and source the right tenants.

With the medium-term rental strategy, you will:

• Stop worrying about short-term rental regulations
• Handle less communication and coordination with renters
• Reduce expenses on supplies, cleaning fees, and more
• Simplify your bookkeeping and say goodbye to lodging tax
• Gain the ability to set your rates due to less competition
• Deal with less vacancy than long-term rentals and source higher profits with the right guests
• Use the property yourself or as a guest apartment when needed
• Find popularity in unusual locations (near a port, warehouse, etc.), allowing for cheaper property purchases
• Self-manage your properties from anywhere in the world with less hassle than short-term rentals
