Short term rental agreements are accepted around the world for a period of less than 90 days.
Especially after airbnb, booking, Expedia etc. portals became so popular in the last 10 years. The positive point of short term rent of course flexible pricing depends on season or some special events time like fairs, exhibitions, concerts, festivals etc; meanwhile the owner can update the prices even as weekdays or weekends; and as we can guess renting somewhere as short term averagely more expensive than whole year rent, also owner can use the apartment in some specific period: Assume that investor is living in NY and has a flat in the center of Istanbul. This investor comes to Turkey twice a year. He can keep his unit empty in these particular periods and use those dates. It also provides that the owner may check his Property during the period.
But of course there are some negative points of this method: The maintenance fee of the unit will be much expensive than long term rent because each tenant changes the unit should be prepared for new tenant and it increases the house keeping costs plus the owner should renew the furniture and other fixtures shorter period, also the short term tenants might use the house a bit messy and it creates another cost to the owner.
Long term rental agreements are called for in a 90 days rental period. This option is more popular in large complex projects and also provides regular income for the homeowner. Also if the homeowner finds the right tenant it provides a long years hustle free investment.
There are main points to choose short or long term rental options as below:
Location: Most of the short term rental options settled in the Central or touristic locations. If the investor’s Property is not in Central location or has easy access to center we are not recommending short term operation. It doesn’t provide desired profitability.
Building type: Most of available for short term properties are as hotel service apartment complex, stand alone historical building etc. If the investor would be the one in the specific building who tries to give short term rent; there might be problems with neighbors or building management.
Unit Type & Size: As we can guess, most of short term units are studios or 1+1 type of units and must to be fully furnished with all equipments like kitchenware, towel etc.; on the other side, most 2 or 3 bedroom tenant candidates desire unfurnished apartments because most of the residents have their own furniture. That's Why it’s another sensitive point and if a 3 or 4 bedroom apartment is desired to give rent short term it might be empty for a long period.
