Airbnb's Winter Release: A Boon or Bane? Nov 10, 2023

In this podcast episode, we discuss the recent updates rolled out by Airbnb. We analyze how these updates, which include an AI photo tour, access control, guidebooks, and pricing modifications, potentially impact both individual hosts and larger property managers. Generally, we all express that these updates are highly beneficial for single-unit hosts, while potentially harming vendors and technology companies that offer similar features. We also debate the effectiveness and accuracy of Airbnb's automated pricing recommendations, warning that it could reduce revenues for property managers.

The question of consolidation comes back up in regards to the short-term/vacation rental sector of hospitality while in almost the same sentence, we're seeing hoteliers and brands think that it would be easy for them to fully merge into the str/vacation rental sector based on their current standards within their properties.

Is Banning People From Airbnb The Solution To Fraud? Mar 06, 2023

With more and more conferences, the GMH crew is broadcasting from multiple locations as they dive into industry news and the main topic of Banning Guest from Booking Platforms.

Industry News:

LMPM is acquired by Inhabit (link)
Sonder layed off another 14% + stock hitting rock bottom to $.87 (link)
STR Safety: Child dies of drug overdose in STR (link)
Accor Co-Founder dies at 91 years old (link)

AirDNA’s Fact of the Week:

We pulled some data on when to get the lowest prices for STRs, based on lead times. On average it's best to wait 2-4 weeks in advance of the trip to get the lowest rate, though the median lead time in 2022 was roughly 33 days (down from 40 days in 2019), so if you wait until 4 weeks in advance of a trip to book, only half of the homes that were available are still available. On average, guests saved about 9% by booking 2 weeks in advance instead of more than 6 months in advance.

The only location type where we see any saving for last minute bookings (less than a week in advance) is in Urban locations, where lead times are the shortest, averaging 24 days in 2022.

Jamie Lane, Michael Goldin, and Wil Slickers get behind the mic to talk about the earning calls between the big platforms and hotel brands and talk about what they're all looking to invest in the future.

AirDNA’s Fact of the Week

What are the best places to invest in short-term rentals?

Small and mid-sized cities continue to dominate the AirDNA Best Places to Invest list, which now features a regulation score from Revedy. This list features hidden gems with a focus on places with the highest profit potential.
Who made it on the list?
#1 - Fairbanks, Alaska - this location scored a 1/10 for regulation risk (meaning it’s very low risk). The average full-time STR earns $49K annually with an average daily rate (ADR) of $198.
#2 - Evansville, Indiana - Home values in Evansville are relatively low at $116K. With an average daily rate of $129, full-time STRs can expect an average $27K of annual revenue. It also scored a 1/10 for regulation risk.

#3 - Rockford, Illinois - Its eclectic attractions allow the city to maintain an ADR of $175 and an average of $39K in annual revenue.

Will The Industry Be Ready For Revenge Travel? Feb 01, 2021

We've heard a lot about this build-up of travel demand called "Revenge Travel" and how there will be a big boom when things open up and people feel safe. The true question is, will hotels & restaurants have the staff and proper preparations to serve this wild rush? Will, the industry on a global scale, see when this will happen, or will we wake up to our guests waiting outside our doors hungry for good service and experiences?

Industry Recovery Update Jan 18, 2021

This week on Good Morning Hospitality, we discuss how the road to recovery has possibly shifted for the hospitality industry. The vaccine is not rolling out as fast or efficient as expected. The hospitality experience for the guest might not be as appealing if everything is closed.
