You could go many different ways with rentals such as student housing, section 8, targeting specific renters such as traveling nurses/doctors.

If you can I’d recommend house hacking and doing live in flips and just keep buying homes out here in LA and then renting out your homes to traveling nurses or executives.

Even if you have to travel a couple of hours, you have a much better chance of finding someone.How to approach a mentorOnce you've found a likely candidate, it's time to reach out and ask.

I am curious about those who rent a room on Furnished Finders (like to travel nurses) in their private home. 

Now I just call or text agents and say hey, I'm a flipper, before I spend time and travel to go look at this listing, how flexible are your sellers?

Who is traveling there and for what reason would they be looking for a midterm rental?

We give them two options for screening. they can either provide documentation that they are traveling for their job or they can pay for tenant screening.

I am not at that stage yet to spend $1000 + travel expenses for a seminar/workshop. 

And about 25% of my guests come from travel agents somehow.
