Airbnb is changing its house rules on November 20th—and some hosts NOT happy.
No more checkout chore lists and potentially MORE work for your cleaners. But here's what most hosts are missing: these changes could actually give you a competitive advantage!
We own 14 Airbnbs, from large mountain homes to a luxury condo in Turks and Caicos, and we've learned that adapting to guest expectations is key to running a successful Airbnb business.
Today, we're breaking down the nuances of exactly what's changing, what you CAN and CAN'T ask your guests to do, and how these new rules could impact your cleaning costs, guest reviews, and ultimately your cash flow.
Plus, we'll share the simple steps you need to take BEFORE November 20th to protect your business and stay ahead of the competition.
