1 rich Libsyn https://www.libsyn.com 90 600 Short-term rentals are getting tougher—oversupply, shrinking lead times, and new platform fees are squeezing hosts everywhere. But there’s another path. In this episode of the Realty Hack Podcast, I sat down with Amanda Williams (Amanda the Traveling Realtor) to dive into the mid-term rental model—a hybrid strategy blending short-term and corporate stays that can mean fewer headaches and higher profits.&amp;nbsp; Amanda shares how she scaled from flipping homes to more than 15 rental properties, why mid-term rentals (30–90 day stays) outperform short-term in today’s market, and the “quarantine campaign” that saved her business in 2020. She also explains how she built direct booking systems and a brand outside of Airbnb, and why agents should learn this niche to attract investors, relocation clients, and referral opportunities. Whether you’re an agent advising investors, a host tired of chasing bookings, or simply curious about the future of rentals, this conversation is packed with insights you won’t hear anywhere else.
