One of the main differences between short term rental and long term rental for property owners is that the owner is responsible for all the running costs including utilities. These running costs for short term rental property owners include:
- Property taxes (yearly): Typically 2% of the sales price/assessed value.
- Resort taxes in some locations (based on rental income).
- Licensing fees (some areas require a license similar to hotel).
- Homeowners Insurance & Liability Insurance.
- Homeowners Association or Community Dues (maintenance of community features).
- Management fees (Typically $100-250 per month depending on property size).
- Management Commissions (Usually 15-20% of rental).
- Property Maintenance (cleaning fees, pool service, repairs, etc.)
