MTR is more of a convenience and less of an amenity play.Thats right, it’s only zoned single family.

You don't need amenities like short-term and the people looking for MTR has expanded from travel nurses to displaced homeowners, future buyers, just sold sellers, relatives coming into town, insurance companies, etc.

Now if you want to buy and live there forever or you want a specific location or lifestyle or the amenities, might be something to consider, but not for investment....they're for living.Your best option right now depending on your income, is probably to buy at least 4bed house or 5 bedroom if you can make it work financially and rent bedrooms. 

@James Harryton I have been filling up a building with high quality grade materials and amenities.

Hello everyone! I'm trying to figure out a way to utilize a large storage building at one of my MTR listings in Memphis. It is in an enclosed gate area that can only be opened from inside the fence so I'm leaning away...

@Bliss HuNew real estate investors should start local with a conservative approach, focusing on areas near train stations and amenities.

I checked the website AirDna and most homes that rent well offer a pool as an amenity.  

The issue seems to be that apartment owners don't want to be bothered, even though EV charging is an amenity like a tanning booth, pool, deck, hot tub, laundry area or whatever.

Also having a higher proportion of revenue generated through the residential component of the building does make financing easier. (3) The exception to the 80% rule I abide by is when the commercial space is leased to a credit tenant with a proven & sustainable business  or where the space presents the opportunity to attract a neighborhood amenity F&B operator (this is most beneficial in instances where you have a larger localized portfolio where these commercial tenants can positively impact the value of your overall residential portfolio).

Think more like an STR property with great photos and amenities.
