You also get holidays and weekends while all of your other friends and family enjoy their time relaxing. 

You don't want a failure in the middle of winter.

We've seen our area MLS which covers about 20 counties come down to an average sold to list price ratio of 95.1% and Knox county specifically has come to 96.4 % which is lower by about 2% from this time last year and down from our peak this year of 98.5%. but it's about in line from winter 2022 into spring 2023 which was a time when rates were rapidly rising.

As for MTR in the winter, depends on the market. 

I would be using it for a medium term rental agreement during the winter months of my vacation rental.

Is it more profitable to turn a STR to a MTR for the winter months in a coastal town?

Happy Holidays

Get it rented through the winter, then you can rent it at market rate in the spring/summer.

I have a vacation rental townhouse in Rehoboth that I tried to rent for the winter months last year on FF. 

Have not hear anything for quite a while, was hoping for update after the holidays at the beginning of New Year and here we are almost March.
