Big Bear Lake, CA 92315 · Condominium · MLS #IG26104060 · Listed by Rachael Smith-Meadors, RE/MAX Big Bear
Modeled with the same engine behind the Big Bear Airbnb Revenue Estimator — 2 bedrooms, condominium type, Big Bear Lake location.
Most Big Bear condo associations prohibit short-term rentals outright. This one allows them, and that alone puts it in a small category. Set expectations on the numbers though: at roughly 6.4% projected gross it is the most modest performer of the five. Two bedrooms caps your nightly rate, and condos book below standalone cabins because guests come up here wanting a cabin. What you get in exchange is the lowest-effort ownership on this list — 2.5 baths across 1,574 square feet, and somebody else handles the snow. As a second home that covers part of its own carry, it works. As a pure cash-flow play, it does not.
Jurisdiction matters more than almost anything else in a Big Bear STR purchase.
