I would look into buying a condo and renting out the rooms to midterm renter like traveling nurses.

Please count me in.I live in Houston, but travel to Sarasota/ Bradenton quite often.

Outside of real estate, I enjoy Hiking, traveling, and spending time with family.

HelloWe travelled to tarpon springs with my wife in March and really loved the area and the parks/beaches there.We are thinking about buying a vacation house/ investment property there.

I would like to rent it out to traveling nurses or corporate rentals since there is a very large Navy Base there and also 2 hospitals.

I own 2 rental properties but travel for work.
