Scottsdale has a number of seasonal rentals still a few available for this season.  “Seasonal” is the term we use for turn-key, or resort rentals.  These properties (either single family homes, condos, townhouses, or patio homes) are fully outfitted with all furnishings, linens, and a full kitchen, ready to cook and entertain, relax and play. 

Many of our winter visitors are repeat clients, finding a place they really like and leasing it as much as a year in advance.  Seasonal rentals are most occupied in the months of January through March, but winter rates often start as early as November and can run into April.  Winter rates are usually 50-100% higher than off-season rates, and many communities have a one month minimum for lease terms.

I have a two bedroom patio home listed for either short or long term rental in Sandpiper Scottsdale, a very green community surrounded by the McCormick Ranch Golf Club.  It’s got a beautifully updated kitchen and has a warm and welcoming feel.  Located in a gated community, with a park-like setting and a heated pool, it’s truly is paradise in the winter.  The normal winter lease rate is $4200.  In the summer, it’s $2500. 

Plus, the owner has dropped the rate to $4000 for a month’s rental in through the end of April.  He’s had a long-term renter in the unit for the past 15 months, so we’ve not been showing it much.  Now that the property is vacant again, he is motivated to have someone enjoying the home again.

This same owner has another patio home in the same Scottsdale community. This one is already rented through March, and is only available in April this year.  It’s a larger home, with a private patio that makes it easy to cook out every night.  Two spacious masters, plus a huge den that has office space and two Murphy beds.  The current tenants love it and are already talking about coming back next year.

Later today, I will be adding another listing, this one is unfurnished and is only available on a long-term lease, with a minimum 6 months. I have had this home listed for sale already, so you can see more about the home, while we are getting the lease listing on-line. This home will be available for $2250 per month. (And of course, the owners would be delighted to sell it too!)
