Airbnb: How to Open and Run One Well

$39

with Debra Arter

Calendar Oct 17, 2024 at 6 pm

Did you know that Airbnb hosts earn an average of $13,000 annually? Airbnb listings in Maine reached 20,000 in 2022! Many use short-term rentals as a strategy to supplement their income and afford their own home. If you have entertained the idea of opening up your guest bedroom or summer camp for short term rental, this is a class not to miss. The instructor, herself an Airbnb owner since 2017, has interviewed many other Airbnb or VRBO owners and put together a packet of good information, tips, and actual stories of events in the life of a short-term landlord. The course will address issues dealing with ordinances, insurance, expectations, fees, safety, guests, communication, neighbors, and more.
