Finding Tenants for an MTR

[Andrew Bosco]

1. Hey all! I'm going to keep the good times rolling with more relevant information. This time, it's about actually prospecting tenants for an MTR. I have a little different strategy, but it has proven fruitful. It's a ton of front loading. 
2. Contact major housing corporations.  Submit Housing on ALE https://www.alesolutions.com/register-housing/ , Corporate Housing https://www.nationalcorporatehousing.com/landlords , medical solutions https://www.medicalsolutions.com/
3. Contact LOCAL staffing agencies. Here are some of mine. You can simply good them in your area. Contact Jesse Mazzola maximstaffing.com , Contact Kathleen at AYA ayahealthcare.com , Contact ALE reps alesolutions.com , alesolutions.com - insurance relocators. (NH Specific: alesolutions.com )  (can't include the contact info per BP guidelines, but you get the gist)
4. Post to travel specific groups: Post on FB Groups; https://www.coremedicalgroup.com/ (if you navigate to the Travelers Tools > Housing Options - there are links to a few more FB groups), https://www.facebook.com/groups/travelnursehousing/ , https://www.facebook.com/.../furnishedfinder.../ , https://www.facebook.com/groups/Travel.Nurse.Landlords/ ,
5. Post on good ol Furnished Finder: Post on https://www.furnishedfinder.com/
6. Next up are wide use booking platforms. Make sure you set minimum day stays. Post on AirBNB, VRBO, Booking.com and set to 30 or 60 day stay minimums
7. My safety net strategy. Post on Zillow and Apartments.com - post here and you can do 1 of 2 things. 1. Say in the top line (Targeting working professionals, etc with the MTR rate and you can add a small blurb that you will consider LTR tenants if the fit is right) or 2. Post this as an LTR with LTR rate. This will protect you incase you cannot find ANYONE for MTR stays. Make sure you criteria is set for acceptance (2.5x income, 650+ credit, etc)
8. FOLLOW-UP: Arguably the most important. This is a lot of front loading, but you need to follow-up. Travel professionals are PROFESSIONALS. They don't have time for games. Keep it sleek and simple.

This is not a one size fits all, but works for me. Hopefully, this helps others :)
