Opening the Calendar Only Five Weeks Out - Zeona McIntyre's Occupancy Trick
Description
Zeona McIntyre explains how she keeps her midterm rental units at near-full occupancy by opening her Airbnb calendar only five weeks at a time, forcing guests to book around her availability instead of creating awkward gaps. She reveals why one-bedroom condos with shared utilities are her favorite investment: minimal capex exposure, lower purchase prices, and tenants who don't care about in-unit washers.
The episode covers Zeona's shift from short-term to midterm rentals across markets like St. Louis, Boulder, and Colorado Springs, her use of Furnished Finder lead lists to proactively contact traveling nurses, and her push into direct contracts with hospitals and recruiters. She discusses tax savings on stays over 30 days, creative financing through subject-to deals, and why she's bullish on Omaha as a hospital-cluster market with zero rental restrictions.
