Most cards have some sort of reward program... and category bonuses for 2-3X points on travel etc (in plastiq, you can specify what type of vendor you are paying and they will run your card accordingly...don't try to cheat it). 30K Starwood points on my Amex gets me about 3 nights stay in a 250$ a night hotel.Deferred payment.. you can skip one month of payments if you time it right because of your credit card terms.. 

Anyone who is actively involved in health care has a competitive advantage in doing mid-term rentals because you have access at the hospital to help find travel nurses suitable temp housing (yours) while they are in town.

It's just a good idea to be ready to pivot with a traveling nurse/clinician in the event that COVID or civil unrest ramps up.

And you want to travel to France for 10 days.

Jake, I'm trying it for the first time with traveling nurses and other professionals.

I have received a lot of feedback from travel healthcare workers who say "It is terrifying to send a deposit (+1 month rent sometimes) to a stranger to hold space when it could be a scam".

Factor in mistakes, travel, taxes, regulations, bad people and any other variables out of your control that you will encounter in your journey.  

Hey there Birmingham Investors,I've recently relocated to BHM and I'm eager to delve into the world of investing in Short-Term Rental and Medium-Term Rental properties, specifically targeting traveling professionals.

We will travel some months out of the year however, and in that case I probably would explore STR's.  

For me, I may need to relocate to fully retire or may want to travel after retirement but always want a place to come back to.
