Walking score of 95.Pre COVID rental numbers:Monthly gross rent $15,250Cap rate 7.1%Future rental numbers:Estimated Monthly gross rent after current tenants move out $13,950Cap rate 6.5%Because monthly rent looks to be about 20-30% more if you rent by the month, I am considering renting out my duplex for monthly rentals on Airbnb/other sites and potentially for travel nurses (ideal because several hospitals are walking distance to my house).

I would advise you to get pre approved from your lender and make them aware as it will help them understand you are serious!

You just mitigate it as best you can, carry good STR insurance and roll the dice!
