Hello, you can do some research with the city's planning department as far as their development standards for that zoning, i.e. set-backs, height, lot coverage, etc.

.- Strategic Location: Close to major commuter routes (I-495, US-29) and public transit (Metro).High Demand: Inventory in Silver Spring remains tight, driving competitive offers for move-in-ready properties.Diverse Market: A mix of young professionals and families ensures a broad buyer pool.

So you're absolutely right from a PMS capability that some of the major players include Hospitable, Guesty, Lodgify, Ownerrez, etc. 

I use one unit as my primary residence and have been using the other unit as a mid-term rental (~1-3 month stays) to cover the majority of my mortgage.

Whether I find a new tenant or not, the departing tenant moves out after 30 days and is treated like an ordinary termination, which means I process their deposit like normal and they can earn a good landlord reference.2.

It's worth reaching out to Corporate Housing Groups (most HR Departments at large employers have this division as well as Relocation Companies that you can find via an internet search) to offer your property as a 30-day furnished rental.

The majority of investors I work with after using this form more or less break even on the rental business which makes it a non event and very little impact to your debt to income ratio.

Not sure if I'm missing something.Look at it from a perspective of even if your tenant is sec8, majority of the time they still have to pay 30% of the rent.

Along any major road heading out of the city.
