Are you planning on listing your rental property as an Airbnb for the first time? If so, there are several things you should not do as an Airbnb host including the following
#1 – Adding Minimal Photographs In Your Listing
Let’s face it, photographs are often the one thing that people look for when determining if they want to stay in an Airbnb or not.
If your listing has minimal photos, you should take the time to photograph every desirable angle and view of your property because you want to help your guests to envision themselves staying there by looking at your photos.
#2 – Ignoring Guest Reviews
Always take the time to read every guest review because of the simple fact that the reviews can contain tips for how you can improve the property and improve the experience for your next guest.
#3 – Going Cheap On Cleaning
Always take the time to invest in cleaning regardless if you plan on hiring a 3rd party cleaning company, or if you plan on doing the cleaning yourself.
Even the slightest bit of dirt, dust, or a smell that won’t go away can often be enough to make a guest think that the property is dirty even when you know that it’s been cleaned.
#4 - Buying Cheap Amenities
When furnishing an Airbnb, always invest in high-quality amenities that offer value to the property and will make guests feel like they are staying in a place that’s on the same level as a hotel.
Cheap quality amenities don’t, last and guests will know that they are cheap, so it’s best to get the right amenities for your Airbnb that will offer your guests the best experience possible.
