  • MTR experts

    Great show for any MTR hosts. This is the show you want to binge. They cover everything from what should be in your lease to how to stay booked. The host are knowledgeable and their guests are varied. If there is one complaint it can feel a little like a commercial at times but it is for something you want!

  • Cool insiders view

    The hosts find really interesting guests and share a good mix of stories and information. You can tell they are really thoughtful and informative about the format and content. I listen to every show because of how they make it interesting. I do wish they would go deeper into the numbers within the story (cost for cleaning teams, insurance, profit margins, etc.). Great jobs ladies.

  • Great real time inspiration

    I enjoy this show a lot as a Mid Term Rental host and owner. It’s a great perspective from inside the shop of Furnished Finder. What I would love to hear are more stories about those that are still coming up in the journey vs someone that’s already making tons of money. Like a case study with a panel. For example, I’ve got 2 arbitrage units a that are barley cash flowing. I feel like I’ve followed all the tips on the show, but maybe a pro could pick it apart and help me find the holes.

Katie Left 13 Midterm Rentals with a Manager for 2 Weeks — Here's What Happened

STR w/ MTR: The Rental Strategy Making Landlords More Money With Less Work
Q: How do you determine if a property should be 100% STR, MTR, or a hybrid?
We base it on data: market density of midterm listings, potential demand from nearby institutions like hospitals, and projections from tools like AirDNA and Pricelabs to evaluate length of stay and pricing. If long-term potential is solid and midterm demand exists, we lean hybrid to maximize occupancy and minimize risk.
