Since your place is already furnished you can test this out pretty easily by changing the minimum stay to 30 days.

@Jonathan GreeneThe short answer is it will depend on a few things like the tools and listing platforms that you're usingMy current workflow involves many tools (including Monday.com, Baselane, and Furnished plus other listing platforms).

If you didn't, seems like a bad / inexperienced accountant to suggest such a thing.In my opinion, its the same as telling someone to go to a trade school and get a new career.A STR can help you lower your taxes but I would only do it if you were planning to purchase a STR.A STR is a business, you are responsible for furnishing the house, responding to guests, providing a great stay and experience, etc

I think it depends on the market.. they approached me on a furnished rental I had in Vegas (Summerlin gated community A class)  We got basically double or a little more of the normal rent..

In the STR world - that extra money is for the furnishings of the home.  

We are now renting as fully furnished mid term rental and really pleased with the success of that project.

Waylon- To have the largest buyer pool, my opinion is to price and market the home as furnishings or turnkey options are negotiable.Since this home is flexible in its use - let the market participants decide which option works best rather than defining it for them. 

With this model I'm able to get a lot more than other MTR operators who are relying on Furnished Finder and Airbnb for bookings.Being that I only operate MTRs, I price my fees to include this.

I got lucky that the tenant wanted a house in my neighborhood to keep kids close to their schoolsHouse was listed for 1750, they offered 2250 but I declined , so they offered $3k, ended up renting the house for $3250 ($250 pet rent) per month, for 3 month, open to extension if needed.I met the tenant and did the background check on them, I felt comfortable renting to them THD takes time with approving the property, but they were quick to approve the lease, and they sent me the checks the next day after lease signingMy house is not furnished, and they were ok with that , they actually work with a company that provides furniture for the tenant, and they coordinate the delivery and setup of furniture on the lease start dateOverall I like the experience working with them , but hey today is day #1 (out of a possible 3 months), so I will update this post if anything wrong happens or if I notice any red flags
