Quote from @Joy Daniels: I manage short-term rentals in the Sarasota area, and I'm always looking for innovative ways to boost occupancy rates year-round.From your experience, what marketing strategies have had the biggest impact on keeping your properties booked?

After a grace period of 1.5 days give another notice and mention legal action or law enforcement5.

But. that short of a hold period would be suspect by itself if ever audited.  

They always make sure to have line(s) of credit to get them through challenging periods.

We have sold (tax free), kept as long term and/or short term rentals as well.

Dig into more of why you're investing and if cashflow is the short term goal there are markets and strategies for that, ask anyone investing in the buckeye.

Longer story short, I have a nicer rental that I picked up in the Dallas area.

I tried to be realistic, based on what I've read in these forums, and to use lower tenancy periods, higher maintenance costs, etc..

i wish i had better news for you but it's probably not feasible in the short term to replace your W2 income with rental income. 

I think the folks trying to do Airbnb and short term leasing in Cleveland's many Section 8 neighborhoods are out of their minds.
