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.
