What neighborhoods are best for short-term rental income in this area?

Lynn Haven is a growing STR market located just north of Panama City, popular for its family-friendly neighborhoods and proximity to Tyndall Air Force Base. Communities like Northshore, College Point, and The Hammocks offer updated homes and new construction ideal for short- or mid-term rentals. Lynn Haven attracts military families, contractors, and regional visitors looking for quiet accommodations outside beach traffic zones. Real estate values are rising due to strong demand and infrastructure improvements. With relatively few STR restrictions and affordable housing stock, Lynn Haven presents a great opportunity for investors seeking consistent bookings and long-term value growth.

Are there Airbnb restrictions or license requirements in Lynn Haven?

Lynn Haven allows short-term rentals but requires a business tax receipt, DBPR registration, and compliance with Bay County tax regulations. STRs are generally allowed in mixed-use and some residential zones, though stricter rules may apply near schools or densely populated neighborhoods. The city emphasizes safety and occupancy compliance and may issue citations for violations. Lynn Haven is a solid choice for mid-tier STRs serving Tyndall AFB personnel, visiting families, and regional travelers.

What makes a house — or other property types like condos or townhomes — ideal for short-term rentals in this market?

In Lynn Haven, ideal STRs include single-family homes with 3+ bedrooms, updated kitchens, and backyard patios. While not a vacation hub, Lynn Haven attracts mid-length stays from contractors, military families, and professionals. Condos may appeal in newer developments. Quiet neighborhoods, functional spaces, and proximity to Panama City or Tyndall AFB support rental success.

Can you show reviews or data on successful Airbnb investments nearby?

Yes, we frequently analyze regional Airbnb data from platforms like AirDNA and PriceLabs to identify high-performing properties across Florida. In popular areas such as Orlando, Tampa Bay, and along the 30A corridor, many short-term rentals consistently achieve occupancy rates between 50–67%, with average daily rates (ADR) ranging from $222 to $289, depending on the season and location. For instance, Orlando’s short-term rentals average a 51% occupancy rate with an ADR of $243.30, leading to an annual revenue of approximately $21,516.

We track key performance indicators including RevPAR (Revenue Per Available Room), booking lead time, and guest reviews to benchmark potential properties. This data-driven approach allows us to provide investor clients with anonymized case studies and aggregated review trends, offering insights into what drives success in different zones throughout Florida.

For example, in Tampa Bay, there has been a notable increase in suburban short-term rentals, with listings growing by 25% last year. However, this surge in supply has outpaced demand, leading to an 11% drop in occupancy rates across the region.

If you're interested, we can provide more detailed data or case studies tailored to specific Florida locations to assist in your investment decisions.

Do you partner with property managers or cohosting services based here?

We don’t outsource property management — we handle it in-house through Home Team Luxury Rentals , part of the Rise Collective. As one of the fastest-growing and highest-rated independently owned property management companies in the U.S., Home Team delivers full-service short-term rental management with a focus on performance, guest experience, and investor satisfaction.

While STR Realtor Search collaborates with top-performing real estate agents and agencies across the Florida and across the US, property management is fully integrated within our ecosystem. This ensures investors benefit from a unified strategy, seamless communication, and best-in-class operational excellence without relying on third-party managers or cohosts.
