Networking with local real estate agents, brokers, and wholesalers can provide great leads and help you stay current on new opportunities as they become available.Additionally, forming relationships with other investors allows you to bring ideas to the table that you may not have considered on your own — such as joint ventures or syndications — which could lead to unique investment opportunities that wouldn’t normally be available otherwise.

Hopefully this helps. 1/2 my business is investor related it’s a good niche.

I often see Norristown as providing a unique opportunity for Pennsylvania and out of state investors alike.

Medium-term rentals is a made-up term with no legal bearing.Then there is the insurance industry’s definition of short term / vacation rental which is uniquely defined as anything less than 6 months.I think the reality is none of these terms have any universal meaning.
