Daytona Beach Florida Mid-Term Rentals

[Paul Pratt]

Hey everyone,

I figured I would share some info on mid-term rentals in my area, and help you build a strategy in case it's something you've been considering. So one of my contacts is a successful airbnb operator in the area (over 10 properties) and he actually made a mistake in buying a property without realizing it wasn't zoned correctly. However, it was sort of a blessing in disguise. He applied the same strategies in regards to renovations and furnishings. For a 3/2 SFR home on beachside, he was grossing $5800 a month on average compared to a long term rent rate of $2600. His clientele made up mostly of snowbirds and people displaced from their condos from storms. THE 2 KEYS are this, 1. Have a solid renovation budget and 2. Make sure you furnish everything as if it is a STR!

Hope this helps, how well you prep your property will reflect in the rates. If you do the bare minimum, expect nothing more.
