I think it varies. There are a large class of landlords that will favor longer term tenants because it is lower risk / less hassle. There are also many cases where renting long term is more profitable as well if the home can't be booked consistently. There has always been a "volume discount" incentive for business owners. I would say there is economic incentive for both interests. I don't claim to have the right to assert my opinion on other renters and landlords. I don't think others should either. Who I think is more important is none of my business. That's between the renter and the landlord IMO. Markets, based on supply and demand, have a natural tendency to find balance between the interests of multiple parties.
