Thanks for the great video...taking notes! Which just closed on our first condo to be used as an airbnb. We have a house we use a LTR but abnb is a different beast. We run a real estate photography company so we got the photo and drone part but now we really need to make it stand out. Thanks for the tips...love your channel.

Binge watched all your videos last night which gave me a lot of great ideas for my Airbnb that I listed two weeks ago. A guest just booked for the whole month of July. I’m not sure how to go about cleaning the place while they are there that month. Or do I wait until they leave after the month stay. What would you two suggest? Both of you are such an inspiration! Can’t wait to watch your next video! Thanks in advance!

Thank you for the support and congrats to you on your new Airbnb!! As far as cleaning: We were advised about every week to have the place cleaned so it’s kept up if someone is staying long term but we would opt for a midway point cleaning + final cleaning. Usually guests are OK with that because they may not want to clean! Check with them too though!

@theresamcgallicher

I think it depends on your deal. I recently rented my AirBnb for a month, and we didn't clean until the end. But that guest got a 50% discount on the normal rate, because that is how I set my unit up. I pay my cleaning lady $100 per visit, so having her stop over weekly would have cut into my profit substantially.

I just started following you, i love all your videos, my question is i turned down a person with a service animal ESA and now I feel that I'm at the bottom of the list, did you start getting people with animals?
@kristenandmichael
2 жыл бұрын
The “no pets” thing we feel is definitely a factor in our bookings. We do allow ESA and have had quite a few guests with them but we haven’t had any issues. Honestly the only time we had an issue was with a friend’s dog! Thank goodness. That being said, we may change the policy to see what happens there - just because we put “pets allowed,” may not mean people will bring pets but people who claim ESA or service animals we think will be more likely to book a place than a place that says “no pets,” they’ll just scroll by vs inquire. We’re on the fence… as you can see we are thinking this out as we type haha it’s always a work in progress. Never stagnant 🤪Let us know what you find if you change anything!

Careful doing that, turning away people with service animals because they have a service animal is illegal, discrimination against the disabled. I don't know the specifics of AirBnB as how rejection is handled, but it's more trouble than it's worth. Just my experience from working in hotels.

Hi everyone! I have been researching trying to decide if I want to turn a house I have listed on the market for sale into an airbnb. It is out away from everything and I would need to add Wi-Fi, a TV, and furnish it fully, set up a mower , insurance, and anything else I have not thought of.. my question is how do you decide decide if it will be rented enough to weren't taking the risk the risk? I am near some chemical plants so was hoping to get regular draw from the workers but I don't know anybody who can confirm that for me.

I would recommend looking into using www.airdna.co You can see all the competition in the area, get an idea of what they are making and how much a property potentially could make. It's a super helpful tool when evaluating a property for Airbnb. (Not sponsored) :)

We're not hosts yet, but are remodeling our house with the full intention to STR it. Do you find that AirBNB may award listings that aren't cross listed on other platforms? I wonder if that is why so many people are experiencing way less listings suddenly.
@kristenandmichael
Жыл бұрын
We never noticed there being an issue with cross listing and have not heard of this being a thing. We do have our listing on multiple platforms and still the majority of our bookings come from Airbnb. :)
