5 Mistakes to Avoid When Managing Your Own Airbnb
5 mistakes to avoid when managing your Airbnb home yourself.
Managing your own Airbnb home may seem simple... until the unexpected happens. To ensure consistent revenue and satisfied guests, here are the most common mistakes to avoid.
Setting the rental price incorrectly
Many owners underestimate or overestimate their rates. The result: low occupancy rates or reduced profitability. Use dynamic pricing tools or hire a professional to adjust your prices seasonally.
Neglecting photos
Photos are the first impression your guests will have of your home. Dark or amateurish shots can cut your bookings in half. Invest in professional photos (at Cindy's Home, they're free 😉).
Not being reactive
On Airbnb, response time influences your ranking. Too long a response time can cost you a booking. Enable notifications and respond within the hour.
Forgetting the small details
A clean but impersonal home won't leave a lasting impression on guests. Add a few thoughtful touches: coffee, a bottle of water, a local brochure... These small gestures add up to big 5-star reviews.
Manage without help
Complete management (housekeeping, messages, maintenance) requires time and diligence. A concierge service like Cindy's Home allows you to delegate everything while increasing your income.
