We do not qualify for the "for work" filter (our strict cancellation policy dis-allows us), but one of our quickest growing segments of renters is corporate bookings -- we get a lot of weekday bookings for corporate retreats, sales off-sites, exec planning sessions, etc. despite not showing in this filter.

Will you be purchasing strictly for rental income or do you plan to use it?
