Jumping into the vacation rental business can be a huge commitment, especially for those who have not done it before. A variety of factors can make or break your property’s success, including location, amenities, and features of the home. Luckily, you can make your vacation rental stand out among the rest with a few investment tips. Take a look at our top five tips for investing in a vacation rental in Scottsdale:
Invest in a Pool
Whenever someone thinks of Scottsdale and the rest of the Valley of the Sun, most people think of the dry and hot weather here in Arizona. We all know how to deal with the high temps, but many visitors may be caught off guard by the summer heat. Those who know what to expect will try to find ways to keep themselves cool during their visit. One great way to help them out and make your property more desirable is to offer a pool in the backyard. Nothing says vacation quite like having direct access to a spacious swimming pool where the whole family can jump on in. You will find that renters who leave the best feedback on our properties are those who have families that found their stay to be a blast for everyone involved. Swimming pools may be a high cost investment up front but will pay off in time. It is also an investment you can enjoy whenever you do not put your property up for rent and want to stay their yourself. A dip in the pool is just what someone needs here in Arizona!
Invest in High-Quality A/C
Another great investment to help keep potential guests comfortable and want to return is by having a functional A/C. No one wants to stay in a property with a loud or subpar A/C on the verge of breaking down. Air conditioners are another high cost investment up front, but they are a must-have in the desert. Having a new A/C will help keep you worry-free, knowing that your property will be in tip top shape.
Invest in Your Backyard
As mentioned, many individuals think of the weather when they thinking of visiting Arizona. While the high summer temps may be a detriment to some, most will enjoy the wintertime weather and being able to be outside during times of year where they cannot do that back home. A great way to add on to your property is by having a welcoming backyard area where the whole family can enjoy time together. Many of our properties in our listings feature spacious patio spaces. Invest in an outdoor dining table and chairs so guests can take their meals outside. Outdoor kitchens can allow them to prepare meals on the patio without having to do so inside. BBQ grills are a cheap and easy way to provide an outdoor cooking experience for guests. Fire pits are a great investment to help your renters find quality moments together under the night sky. Hang up restaurant-style lighting around your patio to add an intimate vibe. Turf or grass areas are great for pets or kids to run around and play. There is no shortage to the fun you can provide for guests, making them more likely to return again and again!
Modernize the Interior of Your Home
Another great aspect that will draw in potential renters to your vacation rental is to modernize the interior of your home. Updating visual aspects of the home such as cabinetry, wall paint colors, and countertops can help your home catch a potential renter’s eye. Adding stainless steel appliances will also add a classy look to your kitchen.
