However, I’m working on a way to get “reason for visit” and where they’re traveling.

I did this and Jimmy and I became friends, sometimes travelled the “guru” circuit of those days together, and I stayed at his house and he often stayed at mine.  

Many of my customers who are traveling nurses buy condos or townhomes in Florida as vacation homes, then rent them out when they're not in town.This system has proven to be very lucrative, as it allows them to service the mortgage debt and generate a good cash flow.
