STR vs LTR calculator — Vermont
Vermont markets can be small and seasonal. Default rent inputs reflect HUD FMR data—thin comps mean you should widen uncertainty on rent and expense, since this calculator is only as good as your inputs. Same math as the national STR vs LTR calculator; numbers are educational—not lender instructions.
Frequently asked questions
- How do STR platform fees affect returns?
- Platform fees reduce gross booking revenue before operating expenses. This calculator applies your fee percentage to gross nightly revenue after occupancy.
- What occupancy makes short-term rental worth it vs long-term?
- It depends on nightly rate, fees, and expenses. Raise occupancy or nightly rate until STR cash flow and NOI beat your long-term rent scenario on the same financing.
- How should I compare STR vs LTR in Vermont?
- Use realistic occupancy and fee assumptions for STR, then compare against a long-term baseline near about $1,600/month. Include cleaner turnover, management, and regulation-related costs before deciding.
