  • Vacation Rental or Part Time Rental
  • Full Time Rental

There are advantages to both.  While full time rentals can offer consistent income while the tenant pays most utility bills there are many more advantages to Vacation Rentals.  While the income from a vacation rental may not be as consistent, its potential for income can be much greater AND allow for personal use.  You can make more in 8 months than a year and still have plenty of personal use time when desired.  Also because of the year round attraction of Lake Tahoe, income can be strong for Lake Tahoe rental properties.
