I was wondering if anyone had ideas on how I might be able to attract more tenants who are okay with having this type of policy as I know it might be a bit of a niche market, but I'd love to hear any suggestions.

Are you looking for guide and advise of an expert on the market or a pass through agen?

What strategies have worked best for marketing midterm rentals in secondary or smaller markets like Portsmouth?

Since then, we've analyzed at least 75 deals across multiple markets, developed our buy box, and choose a strategy that aligns with our goals.

Also, we're not getting anywhere near market rent for the home since its only half the home being rented, however we do feel that we're getting what similar efficiencies are getting in the neighborhood.   

You need income to qualify for loans, you can learn how to manage rentals well (something most landlords never do), you will figure out which communities/properties make the best investments, can earn an above-average paycheck, and may even find some investment properties before they hit the market.

I would choose the strategy that best fits your strengths (unfair advantages) and what the market in your area demands.

Warn them in the marketing (example: "This is an old house and noise travels between units.

Hopefully we will be managing a handful of other STRs in the same market in the future.

Or find a deal first then market it to buyers, then offer on the house and create an agreement with the seller & buyer?
