In this segment, Angela Healy explains how partnering with an expert mid‑term property management company transforms the landlord experience. Mid‑term rentals—furnished stays of 30 days or more—bridge the gap between short‑term and traditional leases, offering steady income and lower turnover. By educating HOAs and city economic‑development teams, Avenue West keeps buildings rent‑ready and owners protected, all while Angela scaled the business from a single condo in 2004 to an 18‑office, 500‑city franchise network.
