Three months after closing, the pandemic hit and I was faced with losing my job, so I flipped it and moved to the west coast.

To the point of doing both mid-term and short-term, I would have to disagree with this because so many factors come into play with demand; events, seasonality, corporate travel, Pandemics (lol), etc.

Times are tough for many short-term rental operators out there given the Covid-19 pandemic, but if you are sufficiently capitalized to weather several months with no income, you should be fine.

This price seems astronomically high to me, specially when I compare it to the price of a 2-bedroom townhouse before the pandemic.

It could also be helpful to see how a market's metrics in these areas looked pre pandemic as the pandemic sped up some of these items in markets.

We're changing our marketing to investors to reflect that we're in a perfect position to take advantage of investment opportunities as the economy gets worse as a result of the coronavirus pandemic. 

The goal was to do a ground up development but due to the recent pandemic, I may be pivoting to take the concept indoors.

Also, post-pandemic you could consider it for an Airbnb if that it is common in that specific neighborhood.

Of course we want to increase rents but during a pandemic you're weighing up greater risk all bundled with future uncertainty.

The commercial lending world has been on a roller coaster since the pandemic.
