Hostfully invites you to their event

๐Ÿ“ˆ The Rise of Monthly Rentals and How to Add Them to Your STR Portfolio!

About this event

Weโ€™re excited to invite you to an exclusive webinar featuring Katie Lyon from Furnished Finder and Ross Shirmadian from Rentence, as they share how short-term rental operators can tap into the growing demand for monthly rentals while successfully managing both STR and MTR stays within their portfolios.

Monthly rental demand is booming! Stays of 28+ days grew 138% from 2019 to 2025, while Furnished Finder saw booking inquiries increase 117% year over year, reaching more than 2.5 million inquiries in 2025. Katie and Ross will share how to capitalize on this growth by understanding the monthly rental guest, adapting your operations, and building an STR + MTR strategy that works within one portfolio.

If youโ€™re already running short-term rentals and wondering how monthly stays could complement your existing portfolio, this webinar is for you.

Whatโ€™s in it for you?

Here's a sneak peek at what we'll cover:

๐Ÿ“ˆ Why Monthly Rentals Are Growing: Explore the rapid growth in 28+ day stays and why more STR operators are looking at monthly rentals as another way to generate demand and diversify their booking strategy.

๐Ÿ‘ฅ Know Your Monthly Rental Guest: Learn whoโ€™s actually booking monthly staysโ€”from corporate travelers and digital nomads to traveling healthcare professionals and relocating familiesโ€”and how their booking behaviors and lead times differ.

๐Ÿก Understand How MTR Operations Differ from STR: Learn how screening, payments, utilities, and guest expectations change with 30+ day staysโ€”and what monthly renters value most.

๐Ÿ“… Build the Right STR + MTR Calendar Strategy: Learn the difference between an STR-primary strategy that fills calendar gaps with monthly stays and an MTR-primary strategy that intentionally creates longer blocks of availability while using STR bookings to fill smaller gaps.

๐Ÿ”„ Manage One Calendar, Not Two: Running both models successfully depends on keeping availability accurate across every channel. See how operators can coordinate STR and MTR availability without constantly managing separate calendars and systems.

๐Ÿ’ก Put It All Together: Walk away with a practical approach for deciding where monthly rentals fit within your portfolio, which guests youโ€™re best positioned to serve, and how to incorporate MTR stays without disrupting your existing STR business.

Why You Canโ€™t Miss This Webinar

Monthly rentals donโ€™t have to replace your short-term rental strategy...they can become another tool in it. Join Katie and Ross to learn how to capture growing monthly demand, serve a different type of traveler, and create an STR + MTR strategy that works together under one portfolio.
