—it’s also about reliability, attention to detail, and someone who just “gets” your space and your guests’ expectations.Do you have any hidden gems, local recommendations, or tips to share?

It is hard but as a realtor I pay attention to prices throughout the year so that I have an idea of whether or not it is a "real" discount.

As someone who did something very similar to this for the last 2 years - rented out my 2nd private bedroom and bathroom in my apartment (rental) furnished to traveling professionals and medical students - I think it's a great idea! 

The best way to go about this is to use Google and pay attention to the markets across the US where there is still opportunity for value in real estate investing.

Thank you for your attention.

I think that Chat GPT hilariously acknowledges, however, that if this person then goes on to run for governor of Colorado, then, despite their likely lack of time and attention to the money I put into the investment, that they are likely to put up phenomenal returns as a nice bonus of either being in office, or being a threat of attracting any meaningful percentage of the vote in that state before dropping out and endorsing an eventual winner.

The seller must've been very motivated to retire...are you buying any residential properties now or does this project pretty much consume all of your attention these days?

If you're certain the type of renter you're going to get are traveling medical professionals, you know they're on short term contracts (typically 13 weeks).
