My rental was gone for Jan-Apr within two days of listing it this year. But It's also available Oct-Dec 2022 and May-June 2023. I've never had a single call for those months, which are generally more pleasant than Jan-Feb. It's also a third of the winter rate in the summer, but I've only had one summer rental since I've owned it. I've never been able to understand it. Summers here are heaven compared to the Texas summers we used to endure!

If a few snowbird renters were willing to think about the shoulder months, we wouldn't be forced to cover our investment in 4 months, and everyone would get a better deal!
