The Maintenance Myth: Why Short-Term Rentals Age Better

Summary

The video highlights three reasons why short-term rentals (STRs) may experience less wear and tear than long-term rentals (LTRs): less wear and tear due to short stays, regular inspections between guests, and more robust guest screening processes. Regular inspections help catch and address small maintenance issues early, potentially preventing larger problems later. The presenter has over 10 years of experience managing both STRs and LTRs and has observed that STRs can have considerably less maintenance costs.
