Calendar Gaps Kill Profits

  • Calendar gaps are the #1 profit killer for midterm rentals with 30-night minimums.
  • Unlike short-term rentals, midterm rental gaps cannot be filled with shorter reservations, massively impacting profitability.
ADVICE

Use Dynamic Pricing Tools

  • Use dynamic pricing tools like PriceLabs to manage calendar availability.
  • Set adjacent night availability to limit booking windows and prevent large unfillable gaps in your calendar.
ADVICE

Customize Booking Gaps

  • Customize your adjacent availability gap length to match your local market demand.
  • Shorten gaps if demand is high; extend them if your market is seasonal or slow.
