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

There are several STR's on AiR B&B that do not abide this; are they likely operating outside of permits or does the county make exceptions?

If you can hang on into next spring/summer I bet you'll get better rents or be able to sell.How about asking your lender to push a monthly payment to the end of your term for the purpose of fixing the asset?

So poison them if you want, plug up the hole in early spring, and call it good. 

We are new to real estate (1 rental) and are gearing up to get into the game in Spring.

Many properties in Macon lack central heat and air which I feel is a "must-have" amenity in GA.

They also held two annual events in the Fall and Spring that drew in over 100,000 tourists each.

I price my midterm rentals in Denver and Colorado Springs through a blend of rentometer.com, checking out the competition and paying attention to the season.

Its always been my understanding that renting in the winter months can be challenging compared to spring/summer.

This is very valuable for me because the houses around us only rent in the spring and summer.
