I enjoy them.When I buy my 1.1k ish sqft for $200/ft and less than $275/mo HOA winter condo, I'll bring my own car and skates👍

They want to keep "costs down" in the winter so they are wanting to primarily use gas not the mini split (since they pay for electricity.) 

I know a vacancy is tough and it can be hard to find tenants in the winter, but you have to weight the costs and benefits and decide.If it's harder to find renters in the winter, try offering a month-to-month lease just to get through the winter, then move back to a one-year lease in the spring.

If it were me, I would get them out now so you can clean/renovate during the winter and get it on the market in early Spring.

I love the area and know people that attempt to MTR in the winter and STR in the summer. 

What would you say your occupancy is during winter months?

The irony...the party of tolerance being intolerant. insurance is always a bouncing ball.. my insurance in Lake Oswego and we have no fire risk other than normal No weather risk  just risk of winter gloom and depression. 

I've sold rentals before and almost always was asked for a copy of my Sch E.Also during the due diligence and inspection, try to talk to the tenants directly to confirm how much they pay, and also if there are known issues that haven't been repaired (roof leaks, frozen pipes in the same area every winter, etc).

@Maria WalshHi Maria,To your original questions, whether condo or SFH, you will not have a problem finding tenants, particularly in the winter months.

Garden usually is cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter.
