If you want to buy  STR or MTR, i recommend buying next to hospitals there or near strong economic bases.

A serious accident with injured person requiring hospitalization can get to a million dollars in a month or two of medical care.Hence the efforts by asset protection specialists.For my part, I just use the LLC approach.

Everything around the lot is older but the neighborhood is less than 5 minutes away from downtown, hospital and colleges. see this all the time in and around downtown columbus OH, we have frindge areas that are getting rehabbed and flipped like crazy and then the new builds come in. 

If hospitality interests you than you can pursue STR.

Free webinars, like Hospitable is hosting one in 2 weeks (Host to Host: A Short-Term Rental Mastermind). 

Ford, Rocket mortgage, Beaumont hospitals and more.

A tax professional can help determine if you meet the criteria for deducting expenses in 2024. 

You also don't need to do a traditional long term strategy, is there a draw the  area that playing host to a traveling nurse or other professional/student would be interested?
