If you’ve been running a short-term rental in Pocono Lake, you already know the drill: managing bookings, keeping the place spotless, responding to guests, and making sure everything is perfect every stay. It can be rewarding – but let’s be honest, it’s also a lot of work. And with today’s market still holding strong for homes in resort-style communities, many STR owners are wondering: is now the right time to cash out?
Why Your Pocono Lake STR Is So Attractive Right Now
The beauty of owning a home in communities like Arrowhead Lake, Locust Lake Village, and Riverside Estates is that your home isn’t just a house – it’s part of a vacation lifestyle. Buyers see lake access, trails, pools, and a chance to “live where they play.” That means your home appeals not only to other investors but also to families dreaming of their own getaway or buyers ready to make the Poconos their primary home.
This “two-for-one” market appeal is what makes STR properties so valuable right now. They’re already proven performers for income, but also move-in ready for buyers who just want the lifestyle.
Why Consider Selling Now?
Even though the frenzy has cooled a bit since COVID’s peak, demand hasn’t disappeared. In fact, buyers today are more motivated by the idea of offsetting their costs with rental income – exactly what your property has already proven it can do. That makes your STR a very marketable asset.
Cashing out now means you get to reap the rewards of both: the years of rental income you’ve collected and a strong sale price in a market where buyers are still hungry for turnkey homes.
