Listing vacation rental for sale while renting it

[Jeff Macdonald]

Hey Vacation rental folks!

Has anyone had experience listing their vacation rental for sale and rent at the same time? We bought our first investment house a couple months ago and are really on the fence about flipping versus trying it as a vacation rental. We are tempted to try it as a vacation rental for a few months and then list it for sale as well. I imagine you could let renters know that their reservation is subject to cancellation by owner until it is less than 45 days before the date. This would allow time for a sale to occur and it be rented.

Feedback? Suggestions?
