Long Term Lease vs Short Term Rental?
Things have changed. The long-term rental market has seen a massive shake up thanks to the dawning of Airbnb + other platforms.
Generally, there are two options for your investment property;
- Long-term rental which tends to be for periods of 6 – 12 months
- Short-term rental which is for shorter periods ranging from days, weeks or a month+
So…the big question is what makes more money?
To not keep you in suspense…the answer to this question, is you will make more income via short-term vs a long-term lease.
However, it’s not all about money, so let’s have a look at the pros and cons of both options, to base this statement on facts.
