Summary

Jorge Contreras argues why long-term rental properties may not be as great of an investment as short-term rentals (STRs). He discusses the potential to generate higher net profits with STRs than long-term rentals, the greater level of control, and tax advantages from cost segregation. Long-term rentals are capped at a 3-5% increase in rent year over year.
