Big Airbnb lesson we had when we first started is that we went cheap to undercut everyone in the area with no rules on who could reserve just to get reviews to start with. But it turned out cheap rates equal cheap guest with bad reviews. Put the rates to high ish prices, restricted who could reserve and have had great guest and reviews since. Big lesson at the beginning, almost quit Airbnb over it but stuck it out. It never starts out smooth!
We're just getting started with Airbnb and had the same idea of undercutting but are now rethinking that strategy thanks to you. Much appreciated insight you provided. Thanks a bunch and hope you have many Airbnb success stories in the future. Peace.
Coming from the service industry as I enter the AirBnB world, I kinda figured that. Undercutting everyone else only serves to attract a broke-ass client, who is going to be an expert at complaining and trying to get something for nothing or bullying you into a reduced cost stay. It's the same at a restaurant; the couple who splits a meal and drinks water is generally always going to leave you the crappiest tip and find something to whine about to try to get a free dessert.
I wasnt financial free until my 40’s and I’m still in my 40’s, bought my second house I rented on Airbnb already , earn on a monthly through passive income and got 4 out of 5 goals, just hope it encourages someone that it doesn’t matter if you don’t have any of them right now, you can start TODAY regardless your age INVEST and change your future! Investing is a grand choice I made. Great video! Thanks for sharing! Very inspiring! I love this...
Glad I came across this comment section. I was struggling to decide what to do with a good amount of money in the bank doing nothing. I would be happy if you could advise me, as I am ready to go the passive income path.
@@eadad4371 Alright so generally, investing requires higher knowledge. For this reason, It's important to have a solid support structure (financial consultant) to guide you through especially in asset picking. I operate with (REGINA LOUISE COLLARO) an investment advisor who partners with a licensed wealth management firm. For the record, the experience has been the best for my finance. She is quite popular for her services so you might have heard of her. She made me financially stable investing through her help, now I earn on a monthly basis through her passive income strategy...So I’ll advise you do get a good Investment advisor for yourself.
@@skoopqueen. That’s great , your investment advisor must be really good,I have seen testimonies of people using the help of investment advisors in making them more financial stable. Do you mind sharing more info on this person?
@@eadad4371 look her up on the internet and leave her a message she's quite popular for her services as she was recently featured on cnn. She can work with anyone irrespective of where their located
@@skoopqueen. I have had the intentions of starting investing. But I always thought it was late and I think I need to stop procrastinating. I will definitely 🔍 Regina Louise Collaro and see what she can advise .Thanks a lot . This was of so much help to me .
Nice video! I'm currently 19 and majoring in computer science to build a foundation in my income, I started to build my credit 4 months ago too. Hoping one day I will be an airbnb host and have a passive income, thank you so much
I am literally in the EXACT same boat. I just turned 20 last week, majoring in computer science for the same reason, and have started building credit this last year. We got this!
A year ago I was clueless as to how to get funding as well. I recently purchased my third rental property last week. I got into the finance market on a short term through a market coach, [epicgirlamanda] last year and I still do. Thanks to her, I'm on my way to financial freedom. To reach her, search her
1) Just embrace going all in on It’s Been A While. 2) It’s Robuilto. 3) Does your heart ever skip several beats and make you think, “Oh my God, this is how I’m gonna go down!”? 4) Trial guests are in our place now and pointing out some stuff we need to fix, because I’m going to be the one to launch a perfect listing. 😉
How do you deal with guests that lie about occupancy? I’ve had on few occasions guests say 2 are living there and then find out 3-4 people are there. I kindly ask them to pay the additional fees for more folks as shown in the listing. I’ve gotten angry responses back and even had folks complain directly to Airbnb asking for a full refund stay which makes me livid and cringe at the same time. Do I just see this as a cost of business and let them go? Do I increase base prices and forget occupancy rates all together?
Personally since I rent out my primary residence and stay in a tiny home on the other side of the property, I don't tolerate overage of guests. Because I'm here I can see who's in the house. The number of guests makes a huge difference because of the wear and tear on the property.
Let the ppl have it dont worry about the guest count unless you have like hard set limit. So if you have a set limit of like no more than 8 people and they bring 9, have a fee in place for that
👋 Great question afsfdf. I’m thinking about making a video on this. Let me know if that’d be be helpful. P.S. If you have any other questions about starting & growing your Airbnb business lmk.
Just wanted to thank you, watched one of your videos for the 1st time 2 months ago and we are about to close escrow now. Your videos gave me the confidence to get started.
Housing, affordable housing becomes less and less. More laws for communities experiencing this loss. But we can't stop our society to want to keep up with our cost of living and in comfort. We have a lot to think about. On the flip side, this helps to upgrade communities needing care. Best to you and all in need.

I am researching to set up my first Airbnb rental. I have a few long term rentals and plan to use one of those to short term rentals. This video is great with good information. A big thank you! Now I need to get to your other videos.
I’ve gotten very different data from AirDNA vs Rabbu vs Mashvisor - we’re talking average occupancies being in the 30%s on the latter two versus mid- to high- 50%s on AirDNA. The 20% difference is make or break on a deal. What do you recommend doing in this case?

Hey, thank you so much for info, i have questions , I saw on shopping list that part of items are pricy, like pots and pans, or toaster ($40 compare to $15-20 in walmart that are also fine. how you decided what to go with, amazon staff know as pricy if you compare them to walmart or taget, marshells for example.
What do you think about the latest Airbnb update? All the hosts on Reddit and Facebook groups have been saying bookings have dropped off a cliff since the update.
Hire a professional photographer to take high def photos of which must resampled numerous times to fit in an airbnb ad. Makes a lot of sense? Just like paying off one loan to make another. Banks love that. You make it sound so easy. Just make an offer. BAM done! I'm just being difficult.
So we are thinking about getting into the airbnb business and we are thinking about building a small cabin on our property but we are trying to figure out if it would be best to build on our land or buy and rehab a property close to our home. We live next to the Smoky Mountains, TN and my husband has a hunting and fishing guide business so we will piggyback packages with his guide business. What is your opinion on building on property you currently own or buying a home land package for an airbnb?
👋 Great question Mountain Mama TN. I’m thinking about making a video on this. Let me know if that’d be be helpful. P.S. If you have any other questions about starting & growing your Airbnb business lmk.
Question for anyone who can help me out. Has Mr. Robuilt done a video on how often he has had terrible guests that caused some disastrous problem, or what steps an AirBnB host takes to protect themselves?
Indeed. He has shared plenty. Most recently bears broke into a place of his a wreaked havoc. House Rules, 2-3 night minimum stay, follow up questions at booking to further vet your guests, 25 years and old to book, make sure you get ID, use ABB and the Aircover process... just a few things a host can do. His content is chock full of great information which is sweet....no need at all to sugar coat anything really.
This should be titled "How to start a STR business". To start an Airbnb business, you need a lot of programing skills and a way to drive users to your new website. Airbnb is an OTA. Good luck starting one of them.
Truly enjoyed your video, it was like listening to a friend who knows what he is talking about. Informative and educational, I will recommend for others like me who are interested in the Air BnB world.
yes you are right say amazing information ,and attention to detail, from choosing the right property and location to optimizing pricing and guest experience to achieve success in the competitive vacation rental market. With proper strategies and a positive attitude, however, it can be a lucrative and rewarding venture watch for more .

Hey Rob, what are your thoughts on the recent airbnb change favoring more the “unique” stays vs regular homes or apartments. From several airbnb groups dozens of hosts have gotten a huge loss in bookings because of the change. Just curious.
It's crazy i talked to a lot of hosts and there propperty doesnt show up. Like ours, we have tiny house.. And in the category tinyhouses we not show up... We had bookings everyday and the last 2/3 weeks 4 booking or so.
@@virgilfk4317 yea same thing for our properties, whenever we try to look up as a guest I cannot find my own properties. The only time I was able to find was when I was still logged in the Airbnb system. As soon as I logged out and refreshed the search, my property was no longer there. We had a huge drop in bookings. We have tried several things like updating the listing and snoozing it for sometime, have not had that much change. Might start getting in mid term and corporate housing instead to deal with this unless Airbnb changes back to how it used to be.
Just hearing about this.... And in a different category people are having similar issues with reselling sites. Poshmark, etsy and eBay have all changed there algorithms in the last few months making them harder for independent people. And now Air B&B is doing this? Strange they are all having these issues at the same time....
We own a five generational farm with twenty acres in a very good area . We are trying to decide weather to air BNB or sell . We just are wanting to pay the taxes and insurance and make a little extra in retirement . Thank you for the information
We want to rent our own home while we travel month by month. Since we will live in the house when not renting it, is it harder to do Airbnb when the property is not available year-round?
👋 Great question EBD. I’m thinking about making a video on this. Let me know if that’d be be helpful. P.S. If you have any other questions about starting & growing your Airbnb business lmk.
@@ivantejeda that would be helpful. The core of this is how to turn my house into a revenue generating possibility to make travel for myself a greater part of our lives on a fixed income. Often, we don’t travel bcs we can’t pay the mortgage AND an Airbnb in another city. Having an Airbnb renter in our home while we are away makes travel so much more affordable for us. Also, are there Airbnb property managers who can take care of the house while we are gone? Or should we ask a reliable friend? Plus, how do we inform the neighbors that we will be renting our house in a way that will put them at ease?
Just a correction on his tip. If for example you're approved fo $350,000. Don't enter that as your max. Enter 400,000. Because you always. Always. Always!!!! Have the power to negotiate on the price.
30 years old and still living at home desperately trying to slowly break away from a dead end job with a company I have worked at for ten years. my grandmother has always had a river house in bull head very near laughlen and After asking if she'd sell it to me she said yes as she was thinking about doing so anyways. she said 100k and it is mine. I've got a great credit score with little debt and want to get this property to keep in the family and to rent out while building enough capitol for another property. would really love your input on if this was a good idea and how you would go about it if in my shoes. I have no family or friends who know this stuff and I am terrified of making any mistakes I don't have time to make. thank you in advance.\
First off thank u for reaching this stuff about Airbnb's I have a ? Me and my wife started a Airbnb cleaning business and want to start our own Airbnb would it be beneficial for us to do so??
I have once acre that had a tiny home on it with 2/1. I have since made it a 2/2.5 and I'm building out the land to allow for people to rent the land for family, corporate and personal events as a flexible use space with the capacity for small overnight stay.
can you do a “How to” to buy a property to build a home? I am so stressed but that is what I want to do and I don’t know anyone who has done this but I gotta do it, even if I loose it all my emotions 😳😭😱😂🤪

We have an RV on a fenced 1/3 acre only steps to the Pacific Ocean. We would like to hire someone to get it completely ready for an STR. How might we find a person/company that would walk through the steps for permits/decorations and preparing it for an amazing experience? Appreciate any feedback or direction.
I’m so glad I’m able to still live in my home while doing this. Also is there anything for cars? I just paid off one and I want to buy another one and use the old one for income. Does anyone know of anything that’s legit?
I would start with evaluate your photos, send follow up emails asking for ratings that are personal. Not just automated. Ask what they thought. Tell them you are working on making sure people are getting the experience they want. I have seen that it really makes a difference if you ask people directly if the parking was ok, did everything work, etc. They often come up with things they would not have mentioned otherwise... just some thoughts. Good Luck!

Thank you Rob!! This video is extremely helpful. I am always stopped by the LLC/insurance obstacle. Would you say an LLC is necessary prior to buying if you aren’t sure you will keep purchasing or if it’ll just be a vacation spot for your family.

Also, are there Airbnb property managers who can take care of the house while we are gone? Or should we ask a reliable friend? Plus, how do we inform the neighbors that we will be renting our house in a way that will put them at ease?
Thanks for the video Rob 😁 also I'm a realtor so I have mixed feelings about that bit 😅 anyways good job 👍
We have a 3 bedroom home in NC that is all paid off, super cute house. We are ready to airbnb. I need to know how to start from there.
Can’t find the add to cart button!!! I keep LOOKING AND LOOKING!!!! Where is it????
Great video, lots of good information. Hopefully I can apply some of it while setting up my first property!
Don’t do it cause you’re going to regret it 😂

I plan on getting a cabin out in Big Bear CA and Airbnb it.
30 years old and still living at home desperately trying to slowly break away from a dead end job with a company I have worked at for ten years. my grandmother has always had a river house in bull head very near laughlen and After asking if she'd sell it to me she said yes as she was thinking about doing so anyways. she said 100k and it is mine. I've got a great credit score with little debt and want to get this property to keep in the family and to rent out while building enough capitol for another property. would really love your input on if this was a good idea and how you would go about it if in my shoes. I have no family or friends who know this stuff and I am terrified of making any mistakes I don't have time to make. thank you in advance.\
The best in the game! Thanks for all the info.

Thank you for sharing this info. I just acquired an acre in the suburbs of Houston and I'm trying to start a "country living in the city" airbnb.
💡Great idea @MrsMJLBlackwood! Would you mind sharing more?
I have once acre that had a tiny home on it with 2/1. I have since made it a 2/2.5 and I'm building out the land to allow for people to rent the land for family, corporate and personal events as a flexible use space with the capacity for small overnight stay.
How do you determine how much to invest in a property? Is there a formula to calculate the potential ROI, based on the income? Thanks.
can you do a “How to” to buy a property to build a home? I am so stressed but that is what I want to do and I don’t know anyone who has done this but I gotta do it, even if I loose it all my emotions 😳😭😱😂🤪
👋 Hey Claudia. I’m thinking about making a video on this. Let me know if that’d be helpful.
P.S. If you have any other questions about starting & growing your Airbnb business lmk.
Great video. Is it required to get a vacation rental license? Thanka
👋 Great question Kathy. I’m thinking about making a video on this. Let me know if that’d be be helpful.

We have an RV on a fenced 1/3 acre only steps to the Pacific Ocean. We would like to hire someone to get it completely ready for an STR. How might we find a person/company that would walk through the steps for permits/decorations and preparing it for an amazing experience? Appreciate any feedback or direction.
I’m so glad I’m able to still live in my home while doing this. Also is there anything for cars? I just paid off one and I want to buy another one and use the old one for income. Does anyone know of anything that’s legit?
Hey Rob! Can you talk about how to get more bookings, more conversions and rank higher?
I would start with evaluate your photos, send follow up emails asking for ratings that are personal. Not just automated. Ask what they thought. Tell them you are working on making sure people are getting the experience they want. I have seen that it really makes a difference if you ask people directly if the parking was ok, did everything work, etc. They often come up with things they would not have mentioned otherwise... just some thoughts. Good Luck!
Who builds your homes?
I used airdna for a few months and true story…lost my wife and kids, got bit by my dog and went broke from the subscription service. Should have used mashvisor….
Thank you so much for all of this.

Which video shows how to analyze deals?
Please stay on topic. I left midway to watch someone else on the same subject when you went on a Disney tangent.
Hey Rob, I have been following your CZcams page a lot lately. I know where I plan on getting my airbnb and will be going with Rental abri. for now. I was wondering if you had a spreadsheet for a rental property like you do for buying a house?

Love you brother. Thank you so much. Like your style (my name is Rob, and I'm "rambley" too) : )
step 7 accent seemed kinda germanish, but like bad india jones parody german. i like it, keeping working on that.
Thank you
Bro, that accent is Gold Member! Lol
Could you please put the Automated messages template in the description? I cannot seem to find it there. Thanks!
Hey rob love your vids and editing…one question how to add a car to ur Airbnb
you're the best, man!
Thank you Rob!! This video is extremely helpful. I am always stopped by the LLC/insurance obstacle. Would you say an LLC is necessary prior to buying if you aren’t sure you will keep purchasing or if it’ll just be a vacation spot for your family.
If you’re going to rent it out on Airbnb get the llc to protect yourself from losses
