Mid-Term Rental Investing: The 30–90 Day Strategy

Mid-term rentals (MTRs) target traveling nurses, insurance-housed families, and remote workers who need a furnished stay of 30 days or more. They combine STR-level rents with LTR-level operational simplicity.

Why MTRs cash flow better than LTRs

MTRs typically rent for 1.5–2× the long-term market rate. Because stays are 30+ days, most cities exempt them from short-term rental ordinances and occupancy taxes.

Financing options

DSCR loans work well for MTRs — you can qualify on either signed lease income or a market rent 1007 with an MTR premium.

Frequently asked questions

Who rents mid-term rentals?

Traveling healthcare workers (nurses, therapists), insurance-displaced families, corporate relocations, and remote workers on multi-month stays.

Do I need a special license?

Most cities treat 30+ day stays as regular residential rentals — no STR permit required. Always confirm with local zoning.
