Investing in Airbnb properties has been a lucrative venture for me. It's like having your own mini-hotel empire that generates passive income month after month. By carefully selecting the right locations and providing top-notch hospitality, my Airbnb investments have consistently outperformed traditional real estate. I wasn't financially free until my 40s, and I'm still in my 40s. I've got 3 Airbnb's already, earn on a monthly basis through passive income, and achieved 3 out of 5 goals. Investing was the decision I made.

I wholeheartedly recommend Regina Louise Collaro, a top-tier financial advisor based in the US. In collaboration with an international organization, Regina has been essential in managing my financial plans. Her strategic guidance has supported my goals from funding education to planning for retirement. Selecting the right financial consultant has positively influenced my financial journey. I'm truly grateful for the growth and achievements I've realized through Regina's expert advice and steadfast support

This is a shocker seeing Regina Louise Collaro is being mentioned here. I always had mixed feelings about hiring a lnvestment advisor. For the record, I started working with Regina in 2019, and she manages about 70% of my lnvestments, while I manage the other 30%. My philosophy is that I care more about my own money than anyone else, but she made me accept that they have wealth of information on current conditions and future trends

I love Airbnb and recently I've been wanting to try out an experiment. I've often been fascinated by the idea of RVs and being able to tour around the US and visit anyplace I want and be very mobile. But then I thought why not use Airbnb to be just as mobile? If you have a good Airbnb location or your home is in a good location for Airbnbs. You can just put your own home on Airbnb when you want to be travelling and just lockup your personal items in a certain room or garage and lease out the rest. The income you make from leasing your airbnb you can use to stay in other Airbnbs all over the world. It's kinda a fast form of home swapping.

Here's 1 thing I wish I knew: Airbnb does not care about hosts! I've been hosting since 2014 and anytime there is an issue with a guest where they break stuff or smoke in the house, Airbnb will tell the host there is nothing they can do. If the same thing happens with a guest from VRBO, it's gets resolved. They make sure we don't get screwed. Airbnb only cares about transaction fees which is why if you host on their platform, expect them not to have your back. VRBO on the other hand has been great. And this is based on 7 years of experience on both platforms.

Hello, if someone could help me out in this situation I'd be grateful! I have submitted an experience on AirBnb, it was approved but it says "unavailable" (Your experience has been approved but it's not live yet). I have set availability dates in my calendar and set out a payout method (it's being reviewed). It did not seem to help, it's still unavailable and it doesn't show in the listings page. Anyone knows how to fix this? Thank you!

I am at holiday towns and weekends get booked as do weeks but never mid weeks alone or rarely so thats only true for cities

I find dynamic pricing difficult. I use Airbnb`s automated system but I submit the low and high price. I may have to look into this more. Thank you for the video! You lost me at asking for a 5 star review however. Whenever someone does that, that is the last rating I want to give. IMHO, seems sleazy. Let the guests decide on what rating they want to give you. I also think asking for a 5 star review could get you banned at Airbnb (if you are on Airbnb).

That is absolutely the responsibility of the guest. You can use the "request money" tool on airbnb by including pictures of the damage, state how long you've had the sheets, and a receipt for the set you bought to replace the set that's ruined. And BTW, I've used lots and lots of sheets, super expensive ones, super cheap ones, some in the middle. The most expensive sheets, those beautiful 100% cotton ones are probably the worst kind you can use on a short time airbnb. I've found one source that everyone in the US has access to (it's not amazon) that sells sheets that are beautiful, comfortable, and holds up to multiple washings. They have 2 or 3 big sales a year, and I get queen sized sheets for about $20/set.

Hi Veronica, I worked at a 4 diamond hotel for 4 years cleaning rooms, while in high school and college so I'm going to give you my 2 cents about sheets because we really never had the problems I'm seeing hosts have, here in comments and on the Airbnb hosts forum. Use hotel sheets (Sams Club is where I got mine in half dozen amounts or hotel supply). Cotton/Poly blend, nice heavy material. Guests love them, they feel luxurious, no one complains about the poly content. Stains come out easily. Don't get 100% cotton and don't get sheets at your local big box and expect stains to come out. Also, they aren't as durable, seams will unstitch. Good luck!

Hi there, how do i now send a map and photos to my guests on airbnb? They keep changing it..thanks

Helpful.......but I don't agree with prompting guests to leave 5 star reviews. The hidden message is 'anything less won't be appreciated' which means potentially biased and unrealistic reviews for those making bookings.

Does anyone know if its possible to automate a message to ask for a review?

@Nomonde Rasayi, I met a guy who helped me get started and personally handheld me throughout the process of getting my first Airbnb generating income property. FYI in just 4 weeks and without owning it. His name was Jim from Jim G Coaching Club. Just search his YT channel "Jim G Coaching Club" his vids go deep. Hope this helps. Cheers Jaeson

Hi, you need to first decide which model you want to adopt. 1- buy own home and rent 2- managing other people properties i.e co-hosting or 3- rent a property then get permission from landlord to do Airbnb. You also need to get a STR license if you are planning to renting your own house. Once you decide which way you want to go. Then just open an account on Airbnb with ID and photo. Then get your Airbnb ready with house rules and pictures etc and upload on Airbnb but this is just a summary. There are lot more things to decide when doing Airbnb

Not a fan of instant book. I like the back n fourth

Why do you use a Dynamic Pricing tool outside of what Airbnb has built into their platform?

Wasn't happy with theirs. BP also takes into account the demands based on other accommodations in the area such as hotels.

thank u

What kind of insurance does a BNB require?

Why use the Dynamic pricing or Beyond pricing that charge a fee when Airbnb offers a free a Smart pricing

In my opinion Airbnb's smart pricing has different goals (secure a booking > increased revenue)

Has anyone else had to deal with an HOA with a short-term rental restriction? Does this preclude AirBnB use?

Yes and many apartment complexes have a minimum % rentals. This is to protect residents who don't want to live in a transient area with tourists

How many properties to you actually own, that you co-manage? $500k on rental income alone is quite a bit. Just to confirm, that doesn't include any projects like this when you're monetizing your experience as a host, just on rental income alone.

AirBNB or VRBO ?

The "review" has evolved into nothing short of extortion. The game of complaining about ANYTHING possible and the LIES told are out of control now. I've had to rewrite my contract to include an "acceptance" statement on check-in. I refuse to refund any money after that point. I've also had to include a "acknowledgement" form stating that the "guest" are aware of and agree to be held accountable for any and all restrictions explained in the lease contract. I'm sick and tired of the "I didn't know" excuse. I hold the card holder on file as the responsible party for the actions of all the guest on the property during the lease agreement and have raised my deposits to a level that will get their attention if it's not refunded.

hi David - do you have any examples of this acceptance statement and acknowledgement I feel very similar as someone who's been doing this awhile and find people will extort you for the five star review and will basically trash or destroy and use as a way to get you to back off asking it's pretty f'd up.
