Regarding travel during a recession, this comment about less travel is a common misnomer in the investment community.

I'm a licensed agent in both markets, licensed general contractor in columbus and soon to be miami, I travel to capital markets and the highest interest is in ground up construction and purchasing of entitled sites. 1 million is light for downtown but you can get 8-12 story sites for that that you can put high density on. phenomenal opportunities. best market in the country. you can sweat equity by doing the zoning meetings, helping on design, etc.

I've started cold calling local hospitals and larger businesses trying to see if I can secure a contract to provide them with a place to house their traveling professionals so more to come on that. 

In the off season, I would market to work crews and others who might travel to the area for several weeks at a time.  

My sister started a property management company but don’t have the knowledge of what to do.

If you get traveling nurses, a lot of them work at night and sleep in the day. 

It just seems hard for these sites to get enough travelers using them, unless you have a property targeting a very niche tenant type that uses a specific website to find housing. 

Hi all, I want to purchase a duplex to start my travel hacking journey.  

While the market in Denver seems to be solid, and everything I find in my research seems to confirm that, I'm unsure of what the rental market is like and for what demographics (family, students, traveling nurses).

We travel for work and though it would be our “true” home, we wouldn’t be there often.
