        "text": "Short-term rentals often have the potential for higher gross rental income compared to long-term rentals, especially in popular tourist destinations like those in Broward and Palm Beach counties. However, they also typically involve higher operating costs, including more frequent cleaning, marketing, and potentially higher utility bills and management fees.

Long-term rentals offer stable income with less management overhead.",
