STR's aren't impossible here, but depending on the area, you'll find them to be extremely seasonal.Other strategies that have worked for me and my clients is the MTR route, there's a robust hospital system in both NYC & LI that is always hiring contracted nurses for 3-6 months contracts. 

I'm a travel nurse and have been sending applications via email.  

Hi guys, pls I have a Tenant in my property in Texas that is giving us issues. She moved in June 20th 2024. She paid for June, and July. She has not paid for August, she has been giving us excuses and lies.  She said ...

Small units, 1 bedroom or smaller, attract travel nurses. 3 bedroom or larger homes are great for insurance placements.

Currently, we have a traveling nurse staying at our property until the end of November.

There are travel nurses & people who come from overseas for training who book for the full price sometimes for 3-6 months. 

Think about how can you make your property a no brainer when having to decide between an apartment and a home. 2-Contact homeowners who are not in your close proximity, so they do not feel threatened, and ask them what are they seeing in the market, and how are they are adjusting (most likely you are not the only one who is experiencing this). 3-  If you decide to work with a real estate agent, use one that works with rentals, and better yet, someone who specializes in property management as well, because they will help you weed out  bad applicants. 4- This last one I do not have experience with, but I would definitely try it if my rental was near a hospital: Partner with a company that finds housing for traveling nurses.

I myself am a travel nurse and Airbnb host.

Focused on traveling nurses.

With Cleveland Clinic in the area, it’s a great opportunity for real estate investments, especially targeting travel nurses.
