Looking to start at least one car to add to my properties as I do midterm/short term rentals that you can definitely convenience yourself far more than having to have woken up at 6 AM to ready the car for your 8 AM booking by blocking off the car on your calendar and making sure that you would have had it cleaned, and ready for your next booking without being inconvenienced

When you rent your car on Turo, Turo provides an insurance policy. If something happens to your car it wouldn't go through your personal insurance. Your personal insurance is only for you when you are driving the vehicle when the vehicle isn't being rented out.

Hey Mercedes, Loved this video, it was very insightful. I feel you on not liking cars. Turo may not be too bad for some but what got me was the smoke in the car. It is very unpleasant for other renters and yourself as you said. I know you will find something that works better for you! Im considering selling on amazon currently. Still trying to figure it out and still doing amazon influencer at the same time.

Hey! Thank you as always! The smoke in the car was definitely annoying. Thankfully, I bought a bunch of stuff on Amazon to review and use to try to remove the smoke smell. A combination of using a steamer and this air freshener bomb removed the smoke smell completely. Like everything turo is about learning as you go and you just figure it out. But yes, it was very unpleasant. I appreciate your kind words. I think selling on Amazon could be very lucrative for you! I don’t know if that’s the route I want to go just yet but will see. I have some ideas I hope to share soon! Amazon influencer hasn’t been good lately….

You're the host you said it the way you want. Essentially the more convenient you make it the higher the price. Conversely the more inconvenient you make it the lower the price should be. For example you want $300 a day for luxury midsize that you will bring to the customer what's a tank full of gas plus you're allowed them to smoke and you give them candies and mints or unlimited miles and drop off anywhere within 30 me of the pickup Option two would be the same vehicle whatever gas is in must be at the same point when it comes back no free mi no frills vehicle is $150 a day pick up and drop off is the exact same must be returned clean.
