So I do want to clarify a few things about how my property is furnished that I assumed was implied, but my potential MTR does have the following:

- Washer/Dryer

- 75 inch mounted TV 

- Fridge/Microwave

- Kitchen Appliances (silverware, pots/pans, soap dispensers, coffee maker, cutting boards, etc)

- Multiple large mirrors on walls, fake plants around the home, living room carpet/coffee table in additon to couch.

- Full office with a desk and a deskchar plus filing cabinet.

- Bathroom towels, hair dryer, soap, toilettires, etc. 

- Grill in the backyard.

I'm not sure if this makes a difference? This is all in ADDITION to of course having the obivous (bed set in the master plus a couch)

The main reason im debating is because its a 2 bed. I'm nervous I will have hardly any cash flow with this property if I rent it as a long term rental. I feel there is potential for it to be a good MTR if I advertise and take pictures properly. Im currently reading "30 day stay" by Zeona McLntyre and Sarah Weaver to help me understand how to maximize the market of my property.

I purchased a 2 bed, 2 bath home roughly 8-10 minutes from Downtown Phoenix. It was built in 2002, and I renovated the entire flooring by removing the original tile and putting Vinyl flooring in, there is no carpet within the house. I redid the master bathroom by removing the tub and putting in a standing shower with white granite looking tile, and a custom glass shower door. Replaced both toilets with brand new ones, replaced the 2 car- garage door with a brand new one, had all the walls freshly painted, put brand new baseboards in, and had the kitchen cabinets painted as well. The house is also furnished with a solid wood no spring couch, and a solid wood round dining table, and a king sized bedroom set in the master. My question is:

Is this house better off being rented long term for tenants or should I gravitate toward a midterm rental for possible traveling nurses or traveling professionals who want a cleaner, more up to date space, closer to downtown? I am thinking since it is only a 2 bedroom this may be a better choice versus trying to find a smaller family to rent it out too. Does anybody have any good experience with mid term rentals in phoenix?
