I’m looking to get a condo 2bd/1bath or something similar near rush, Stroger/CC hospital, and UIC (not just looking to attract travel nurses I promise lol).

Remote work, travel nursing, school.

Is it usually solo business professionals ( travel nurses, corporate executives, etc) that rent midterm. 

It's best to start in your own back yard if you can or somewhere where you can get to and home in a day of travel when you are starting out.

When this Policy applies, guests can cancel their reservation and receive a refund, travel credit, and/or other consideration regardless of the reservation’s cancellation policy, and Hosts can cancel without fees or other adverse consequences, although their listing’s calendar will be blocked for the dates of the canceled reservation...What Events Are Covered...Government travel restrictions.

Plus, if done correctly, you might be able to deduct your travel as a business expense.

Throw in a dose of imposter syndrome and fatalism and you have a recipe for some mood swings right before a property is booked again.From a practical point, I would recommend great photos, a clearly defined target to whom you are advertising and understanding the best pricing of an area really well to ake sure you get booked in a timely fashion.From a more meta perspective, be aware that these listings don't typically get booked well in advance (families displaced by flood or fire, traveling nurses who need a new contract ASAP, and construction projects that realize they need a speciality engineer on-site RIGHT NOW don't book ahead). 

I'm in Europe now and can't travel to Texas, is there a service that I can hire, someone unbiased who will go inspect the property for me?

How BiggerPockets, @Alexandra Hughes Pailet, and @Katie Miller went with the flow as the weather threatened (and did) to disrupt all of our outdoor events, travel, and transportation.

This will give you a feel for the numbers in realtime.Second, I'd advise looking hard at the travel nurse/corporate travel market, as opposed to general tourism market.After arbitraging for 6 months to a year you'll have a very good idea of where to find your 20% CoC opportunity.
