Frequently Asked Questions
How much did typical Greenville listings earn last year?
Typical Greenville listings earned about $23,834 last year from 877 active rentals, AirROI trailing twelve months from August 2025 through July 2026. Average night was $186, occupancy 43.9 percent, and revenue per available night was $86. Year over year is minus 2.9 percent, with active supply up 18.5 percent. Keep Lake Keowee on its own line.
When is Greenville's strongest month?
October is the busiest, with March and May the other strong months. July is the slowest month and also the weakest for occupancy. Confirm current fees at City of Greenville Planning and Development before advertising a 2026 season, and keep this pattern specific to the city rather than a Keowee listing.
Do I need a Greenville SC STR permit in 2026?
Call City of Greenville Planning and Development at 864-467-4476, 15 S Main Street / 131 Falls Street. Short-term stays under 30 days are a General Lodging use only in named mixed-use and non-residential districts. The city's STR application lists a $40 permit; a business license and monthly local accommodations tax also apply. Confirm zoning on the city map — don't mix in Greenville, NC rules.
Is a 30-night minimum the same as occupancy?
No. 300 listings, 34.2 percent of the 877 active rentals, set a 30-night minimum, but typical stay is still 7.1 nights with a 38-day lead time. A long minimum-stay setting doesn't reflect what guests actually book, and July remains the slow month regardless.
Should I hire a manager in Greenville and on the lakes?
Professionally managed share in Greenville is 7.9 percent; Dani holds the largest local portfolio at 21 listings. This hub's research puts Keowee near 81 percent independent ownership. Don't buy one manager pitch to cover both markets — the ownership structure and guest occasions differ substantially.
Who books a Greenville stay?
Most guests arrive from Greenville itself, then Charlotte. Typical stay is 7.1 nights with a 38-day lead time. Falls Park and BMW event weeks are city-driven bookings, while a Keowee dock weekend is a lake-driven booking. Keep the two occasions distinct in your copy.
Can I file Keowee as the Greenville year?
No. Greenville's average night was $186 across 877 listings, and this data pass did not produce a dedicated Keowee AirROI year. Keep $23,834 on its own line for Greenville, and don't substitute a lake-market figure when citing this city to a buyer.
What should a buyer packet carry?
Cite $23,834 across 877 city listings, note supply up 18.5 percent and year over year down 2.9 percent, and include the permit desk number, 864-467-4476. Keep any Keowee figures on a separate line rather than folding them into the city total.
Where do I confirm the city desk?
Call City of Greenville Planning and Development at 864-467-4476, 15 S Main Street / 131 Falls Street. Confirm whether the parcel sits inside city limits or unincorporated county on the tax map — permit and tax rules differ between the two.
How should a host split city and lake copy?
File two separate products. Greenville copy should lead with Falls Park and the Liberty Bridge; Keowee copy should lead with the dock and lake-weekend occasion. Keep those files apart rather than writing one pitch that tries to cover both markets.
