If you throw salt down on the sidewalk in the winter time.

Its winter time , the gas bill will be higher , its cold out .

Its good to have a crawlspace vented, but less than ideal in winter time when air is dry anyways and cold because you are trying to heat your house.

Meaning, you'll have better wintertime occupancy, and perhaps quite great occupancy, with a cabin in the woods.

@Neil Hauger can you expand on the lease negotiations with winter timing?

I'm aware that some towns have stricter Airbnb laws than others (7-day stay minimum V.S. 30-day stay minimum), and it can be hard to fill the units during the winter time.

I know it’s winter time and stuff moves slower.

My thought on it is everyone is different, some people in the winter time chop a hole in the ice take off all their clothes and jump in the ice water.

While living upstairs i had high electric bills winter only (all elec apts) like 300$ avg in winter time when running heat at about 65ish.I have a feeling the furnace size is pushing it, not incredibly small and not oversized for the unit about 1100 square feet. 

In my area the Winter time is brutal for rentals.
