Summary

🎙 Welcome back to the Episode 790 of Boostly Podcast! 🎙

👋 Welcome to Boostly, where we give STR and MTR owners and managers the tools, strategies, and support to win more direct bookings — no fluff, no ads.

Today, we are joined by Jeff from Furnished Finder — the go-to platform for hosts looking to attract reliable mid-term tenants such as traveling nurses, remote workers, and corporate clients. They dive into how Furnished Finder connects property owners with a steady stream of pre-screened, background-checked renters without the high commissions of OTAs.

You’ll learn how the platform works, what sets it apart from traditional short-term rental channels, and why it’s becoming a game-changer for hosts aiming to reduce vacancies and secure consistent rental income. From tips on optimizing your listing to insights on tenant expectations and rental trends, this episode is packed with practical advice for anyone exploring mid-term rentals.

Let's jump in.
