Long term rentals are up because the State is seeking to cash in on room taxes for short term rentals- IE share houses. The State is currently attempting to retrieve these taxes retroactively. It is getting ugly up there.

LTR's are a vehicle for landlords to avoid these charges.

BBB was referring to the longterm (seasonal) rental market, not the outright sales of properties in the greater K area. And very often those market can be quite different interms of how active (or inactive) they are.

I saw the same thing where my place at Mount Snow is last season (and likely will see the same thing again when the mid-year #'s come out in our owners report). The complex that I'm in, which has about 240 units, and it's own on-site rental/sales office, last year had only 2 outright sales - for reference back a few years ago when the realestate market was booming they were averaging between 20 and 30 sales per year, but last year also saw an increase of just over 75% from the previous year for "longterm" (more than 1 week) and shortterm(less than 1 week) rentals.

So it's very reasonable to have a situation where the longterm rental market is strong, but the sales market is anemic

Meh... Nobody I know who runs a share house has seen their lease increase in a few years. As a landlord, it would be your worst nightmare in this economy to have a good tenant move out and have your place sit unrented. The only people I know who have signed a lease at Killington this summer got a really good deal. I would expect that little has changed in the Killington rental market. The best of the rental stock gets snapped up since there is so little of it. The electric heat, shag carpet, and harvest gold appliance nightmares remain tough to rent.

Did you turn people away or did they run away?
