According to the US Department of Labor, “Labor Day was a creation of the labor movement and is dedicated to the social and economic achievements of American workers. It constitutes a yearly national tribute to the contributions workers have made to the strength, prosperity, and well-being of our country.”
Originally celebrated on May 4 in 1886, Labor Day was moved to September in 1887. On June 28, 1894, Congress passed legislation making the first Monday in September of each year a legal holiday.
For most of us, Labor Day marks the close of the summer. Schools start back up, schedules return to normal, and there is a distinct smell in the air that fall is around the corner. It is also the end of the summer leasing season.
Demand tends to slow down in the fall, especially after Labor Day when college students have returned to campus and families with small children have secured housing before the kids are back in school. Perfect time for renters to explore their options.
So why not take the extra day the Labor Day weekend provides to get ahead in your rental search. We have an extensive network of summer rental homeowners looking to rent their properties for year-round or winter rentals.
