For example, we finish the basements with indoor/outdoor carpet (instead of LVP, which makes it feel a lot more homey), because we know parents go nuts in the winter if they can't send the kids downstairs to pay - or have a space for the guys to watch the game on Sunday.

In colder climates, for instance, winter months tend to be slower for real estate transactions, which can impact fix-and-flip timelines, rental demand, and even property values.However, not all markets are created equal when it comes to seasonality.

The big returns are during winter.

I do get you having some concern maybe going into winter in WI and wondering if tenant activity will be there to fill a vacancy (with lots of leases and moving around happening spring-summer).  

@Kevin S.I recommend putting all properties/accounts into a revocable living trust for estate planning. 

We do well with winter guests. 

With winter fast approaching I need to fill vacancies fast.I have read through some of the post here and understand it can be a decent cash flow, but I would love some recent  feedback from anyone that’s in the padsplit market in Atlanta on what to expect.  

We manage several 'hybrid' properties in Indianapolis, where many function as STRs for the majority of the year and shift to MTRs during the winter months.

If you’ve ever scrolled through Instagram and thought, “What is that next-level hotel in the middle of a forest?”

(My renovated units are unusually nice at each price point where I compete-- and so far, I have always had multiple applicants that want to rent; even in the dead of winter and right before the Christmas holidays).
