Welcome to The Landlord Diaries! In this episode, we sit down with Allen Duan, a mid-term rental powerhouse with a portfolio of over 26 managed and arbitrage properties in Southern California. Allen shares his incredible journey from short-term rentals (STR) to mid-term rentals (MTR), a strategic pivot driven by local restrictions and market opportunities.
