  • From $925 to $2,500 Per Month: The Powerful Impact of Midterm Rentals
    Dec 8 2025

    When long-term rentals stopped making sense, Cameron Carrozza pivoted to monthly (midterm) rentals and the numbers speak for themselves. In this episode, you'll learn how Cam went from collecting $925 in monthly rent to bringing in $2,500 for one unit by converting his duplexes into fully furnished midterm rentals. With six properties on Furnished Finder and average guest stays of 9–10 months, Cam shares how he hit the 1% rule (and beyond), the types of guests he loves hosting, and how he built a high-cashflow, low-maintenance real estate business.

    Whether you're a seasoned landlord or just thinking about your first rental, this episode is packed with real numbers, smart strategies, and inspiring stories including the exact ROI Cam got from furnishing one unit and how he tested a brand-new market with just one listing and zero furniture.
