In the off season, I would market to work crews and others who might travel to the area for several weeks at a time.  

@cWill Gaston has alot of college rentals he may have some experience.

If you get traveling nurses, a lot of them work at night and sleep in the day. 

From my experience I would avoid it as a seller unless I was getting a large down payment, a larger purchase price, or a higher than market interest rate. 

(Yes I know there are other restrictions/conditions.)In the past, I have toyed with the idea of a vacation/rental property in Ocean City, MD, Rehoboth/Bethany/Dewy, DE, and/or the Deep Creek Lake, MD area (I like the idea of being within 3 hours of the rental property in case something goes horrible wrong and I need to travel to the property). 

I've done it, and so I believe I can say something useful about it.You mention in your profile that you have 20 years of experience as a contractor.

You don't need to know everything to get started; you need a foundation to build on and the rest will come through experience and then refining your education.You can build a basic understanding of investing in 3-6 months.

In my experience, there are a lot of houses in Pittsburgh that need TLC and the initial closing cost are appealing, but a lot of those projects end up needing a huge cost in renovations and then once it goes back on the market, you're unable to get the value you need to make the profit you want.

Hi,Does any have experience with increasing the rent to the max allowed for an existing cithfheps NYC tenant? 

If you've been at this for 20 years, what has your experience been since the market went crazy in 2020?
