🏠 The Secret Rental Strategy That Doubles Your Income

WHAT IS A FULLY FURNISHED MIDTERM RENTAL?

If you've been searching for a smarter real estate investing strategy with higher income and less operational headache than Airbnb, this episode is for you. Host Gabriel Petersen sits down with Angela Healy, CEO of Avenue West — a corporate housing company operating since 1999 — to unpack the world of fully furnished midterm rentals, a powerful and widely overlooked niche in real estate investing.

Unlike long-term rentals where tenants supply their own furniture, or short-term vacation rentals where guests rotate every few days, midterm rentals sit in the sweet spot between the two. 🏡 Fully furnished and move-in ready — internet, streaming, linens, all included — these units are leased to corporations housing relocating employees for an average of about 99 days. That means roughly four tenant turns per year, far fewer headaches than a vacation rental, and significantly higher rent than an unfurnished unit.

HOW MUCH MORE MONEY CAN YOU MAKE?

The numbers are compelling. In Denver, a one-bedroom condo renting unfurnished for $1,800 to $2,000 per month can command $3,500 to $4,000 per month as a corporate rental. 💰 That is nearly double the income from the same property. Furnishing costs run about $10,000 for a one-bedroom and around $20,000 for a three-bedroom. When you factor in the premium corporations pay for quality housing, that initial capex gets recouped quickly.
