The case
Florida's highest-density short-term-rental market, minutes from Disney, Universal, and SeaWorld - a well-managed 4BR+ pool home can gross $85K-120K annually at 65-72% occupancy.
STR income is management-intensive and seasonal, with high insurance, HOA, and management costs; furnishing and cleaning add up. Underwrite conservatively and verify HOA STR rules. As of 2026 the Davenport/Osceola STR corridor is softer with more inventory and negotiation room - underwrite conservatively on occupancy.
Best for
Short-term-rental investors comfortable with active management, seasonal demand, and Disney-adjacent tourism dependence.
