How the Coronavirus Impacts Airbnb Hosts (Part I) Mar 12, 2020

Show notes

The Coronavirus has people scared. Though the perceived risk is much higher than the actual threat of contracting COVID-19, many would-be Airbnb guests are cancelling their travel plans. What does that mean for us as STR rental hosts? And what can we do to keep our businesses going in this difficult time?

Today, I’m addressing the Coronavirus and its impact on STR hosts, discussing the markets most affected by the outbreak as well as the details of Airbnb’s extenuating circumstances policy—and how some guests are getting full refunds even if they don’t qualify.

I go on to offer my best advice for hosts who are afraid of exposure and explain why I don’t recommend making any big investments or taking on an expensive lease in the current economic climate. Listen in for insight on how long we might be dealing with Coronavirus and learn what you can do to get more bookings (and maintain your visibility in search results) during this challenging time.

Topics Covered

The markets most impacted by the Coronavirus

China, South Korea and Japan
Italy (entire country on lockdown)
NY, LA and west coast of US

Airbnb’s extenuating circumstances policy

Full refund for guests within guidelines
Hosts can cancel guests from effected areas

Giving refunds outside the extenuating circumstances policy

Hosts under no obligation to offer full refunds
Policy meant for people at real risk
Offer guests option to change travel dates

My advice for hosts afraid of exposure

Don’t panic and cancel reservations outside policy
Offer self check-in, ask about recent travel history
Up your game when it comes to cleaning

How to get more bookings during this difficult time

Offer discounts, reach out to friends and family
Emphasize extra measures taken in listing
Set cancellation policy to flexible
List on additional channels
Stay informed re: local market, events cancelled
Stock up on supplies
Shift target audience to domestic travelers

Why there may be light at the end of the tunnel

Airlines have slashed rates to promote travel
Warmer weather can help contain viruses
Fewer new cases in China (where COVID-19 began)

What STR hosts can do to survive this challenging time

Try to cut costs
Take less risk

Why I’m risk averse in the current economic climate

Parallels to 2007 (e.g.: markets at all-time high)
Interest rates already at nearly zero
Drop in oil prices likely to impact US companies

How Core Values Impact Your STR Business Feb 28, 2020

Show notes

What is the SOUL of your short-term rental (STR) business? What do you believe in? And how do you want to impact other’s lives? Whether you have one Airbnb listing or one thousand, defining your core values (and aligning your actions with those ideals) can help you attract the right people and build a business you can be proud of.

Eric Moeller is the founder of Cohost Mastery and my partner in creating STR Legends Live and the STR Profit Academy. Today, Eric joins me to explain how we define core values for business and why STR hosts should take the time to get clear on what they stand for and who they want to serve.

Eric describes why it’s best to craft a phrase or story around your values (versus a single word), and we get specific on how to leverage your core values to guide decision-making. Listen in for insight into the values Eric and I created for our partnership and learn the Mission to Mars system of defining core values for YOUR STR business!
