Big Bear Workforce Housing Initiative

 

Since exploding into a vacation town, Big Bear is now facing a housing shortage for our workforce. In lieu of this issue, The Vacation Rental industry has banded together and is collecting a .5% volunteer tax on every booking done. These dollars will be paid to Big Bear Workforce Housing Initiative, a local non-profit organization, each quarter. Big Bear Workforce Housing Initiative will be in charge of disbursing the money to home owners quarterly through a steering committee. These funds will be used to pay renters application fees amongst other fees and costs. To aid in fixing this issue we are reaching out to non-occupied homeowners about turning their vacation rental into a full-time rental. Have you been curious about the revenue your home can make as a full-time rental? Do you want to make your home a full-time rental? Well, we have some great news to share with you! Destination Big Bear is now providing the option to turn your home into a full-time rental with us. Over the years Big Bear has expanded into a major vacation town. This has caused our full-time rental homes to diminish greatly. Due to this shortage in homes for our workforce here in Big Bear, we’ve decided to provide our owners with the opportunity to turn their home into a full-time rental and since we already manage your home as a vacation rental, the process is very simple.   We have an extensive list of renters, including Destination Big Bear’s own staff, ready to apply and move in!

Pictured is one of our short-term vacation rentals that decided to become a Full-Time Rental available to our local workforce. This home is fully furnished and will place a large family who was booted from their 13-year rental home due to the owners selling.
