After this high season is over, I have a feeling that there is going to possibly be a wave of STR owners selling their properties because they don't have the stomach for the slow season or are simply financially unable to push through it.Regarding medium term rentals, in the high desert there isn't too much demand for them and is more of a low desert thing.

Medium income around $45k-50k and mostly blue collar.

I'm in a medium expensive market with a family and I 'househack'Not all househacks involve having a roommate or bachelor lifestyle in some plex. 

A medium-sized city with an active rental market. 

I am reading the book 30-day stay around the Medium Term Rental strategy right now and a great hack they mentioned was converting the primary suite into it's own unit if it has a separate entry via a sliding door, etc..

Some great books for creative strategies if the numbers just aren't wokring:30-Day Stay (medium-term rentals can bring more cash flow than LTRs)Long-Distance Real Estate Investing (you can look for properties out of state)Wealth without Cash (not released yet, but subto or seller financing could be helpful given current interest rates!)

Works well for small to medium builders that don't have their own finance companies like Ryan or Pulte etc...PM me if you need a contact thereStephanie

It might be worth looking into those smaller or medium size towns.

The cost to replace the carpets in one SFR we did a few weeks ago was $4800 and I buy medium grade carpets.
