STR Utility cost in Kissimmee resort communities.

Gene Clark
Posted

Looking to get into the Kissimmee market, and I’m looking for some insight on monthly expenses.

What is the going rate for insurance, and monthly utility cost for about a 7-bed, 3,000 sq ft house? What are you usually spending on supplies for guest and cleaners?

Just trying to estimate cost. Thanks in advance!

I have a 9br in Champions Gate.

Electric runs $500-$800/mo depending on the month

Water $210/mo or so

Supplies are going to vary bigtime on whether you're supplying all supplies or just a "starter kit".  People expect all supplies in this market, and stocking a 9br house can get pricey for sure. 

Also note that towels disappear and get stained at an ALARMING rate in this market, compared to any other market I've been in.  Combination of lots of towels, kids, etc.  But they go fast.  So you've gotta choose between risking your reviews confronting guests over towels or just plan to replace them often.
