Struggling to decide between short-term rentals and mid-term rentals in Indianapolis? Wondering which strategy actually performs going into 2026?

In this episode of The Roots Podcast, real estate experts Max Moore and Tyler Lingle break down the real vacancy trends, rent ranges, furnishing costs, and which rental play is actually winning right now. If you’re trying to boost cash flow or choose the right strategy for your next unit, this episode gives you the clarity you need.

Here’s what we cover:
