Other people on CZcams have criticized her so hard for her Airbnb and she hits back with patience, knowledge, and facts. Love to see it
I agree. Wonderful lady with a lot of class. Hence why is she is probably successful.
Agree. Shelby and her sister are very smart people.
Love them both ❤️❤️❤️
I disagree. Airbnb is an excellent strategy. I know a ton of investors I work with that do extremely well.
@@PrimitiveMLG did you watch the video completely? She gives solid pros and cons either way. Sounds like your comment comes from reading the title and not watching the video.
I love airbnbs, but they used to be more affordable than hotels, now the average priced airbnb is around the same price of a 4-star hotel.
Those cleaning fees are ridiculous, especially if you’re only staying for 1 night, can double the cost
What you say is true, but you have to compare apples with apples.
You can't compare a 4 bed 2 bath houses price with a 1 room 4 star hotel.
There is no comparison, unless you rent 4 hotel rooms and even then you're not getting full kitchebs
That's why I just stay in a hotel. There is zero point for an airnb.
@@Eileen49654 You can of that 4 bedroom house requires you to do chores before leaving, doesn't have free/accessible parking, and if you honestly don't need a 4 bedroom house for a weekend vacation.
Air BnB makes sense when you're traveling with a large group but not in general.
Agree here 100%
Transparent youtubers are such a blessing these days and Shelby you are on the top. No sugar coating, just pure realities. Thank you really appreciated.

One of the main qualities that allows Shelby to be so good at CZcams is that she has zero ego, despite clearly being very successful financially. That's hard to find these days and allows her to be transparent and honest regardless of the circumstances, which in turn helps her channel.
pretty sure Shelby had money given to her by her parents

Hi. I'm a first-time viewer on this channel. I have been a host on Airbnb for 17 years starting in 2007. I started Airbnb before the commercials and before it was a household name. I owned a duplex with one 3-bedroom 2-bath and the other a two-bedroom apartment. I went from buying the ugly house on the block to cleaning it up and putting a for rent sign in the front yard then later trying section 8 for a few years then one day I stumbled upon Airbnb online in 2007 and signed up. I went from renting one room in my unit to renovating both houses and remodeling each one then instead of bringing in $750 dollars per month for a two-bedroom, 2 bath I began bringing in $1500 to $2,500 per month and an additional $2,000 up to $3,500 with a three-bedroom unit.
I'm a single parent. I didn't have to get a job. I hired housekeepers to clean each unit when I was too tired or away I was making money hand-over-fist in the South not California. I also rented out rooms in our private cabin in Louisiana as well as campgrounds space on an acre of land in the backyard. The bubble burst in 2020 when the pandemic hit and Airbnb cancelled our reservations worldwide the following year we were hit by hurricane Ida the next year. We sustained significant damage to our house and yard.
The world is different since the pandemic. Property values, real estate, vehicles, food etc have all increased significantly.
Now that we're coming out of the pandemic and people are beginning to travel more they are coming back to Airbnb but not at the rate they booked pre- Covid. People are still leery, self included.
Since 2020 we're now homesteading on an acre. I'm considering building a few small tiny homes/sheds to start Airbnb again to help bring in money to our Homestead. I think the narrator of the video was pretty spot-on that the world has changed and so has Airbnb. For our sake I'm hoping that offering a Homestead experience will be enough of an allure to attract more Airbnb guests to our property. However, guests stays will not exceed the weekend. I know the good, bad and the Oogly of Airbnb. It's not all roses. There's always those who will run a good thing so get ready. Also, the municipalities now I know how much money the airbnb's bring in and they want their cut to now. Check with your local government first just to see what their rules are in general. Some states have began to tax Airbnb hosts which should be illegal so do your research.
Signed,
Seasoned Airbnber
The free ride is over, parasite.
Hilarious and couldn't agree more! I was a first time viewer and think it's odd to hear someone's viewpoints entering airbnb essentially late and in a terrible overpriced market. I was an Airbnb host in nyc for 12 years when it was still considered couch surfing and it changed my life. All of my international guests got canceled and airbnb left decade long hosts out to dry with zero support during the pandemic lock down.
Things initially started to change back in 2018 when my city became saturated with awful kid hosts that just didn't care. Neighbors got pissed from parties. Honestly all the social media influencers claiming to get rich quick attracted these types and ruined it.
The pandemic crushed me and hit tourism hard. I had ptsd from all the people trying to steal from me and squat. Big cities did pretty bad throughout that lock down period (no one wanted to be in elevators), but remote places did well.
I'm just starting to get back in the game and my strategy is different now. I'd never invest in a 750k+ house in a market that didnt have multiple attractions and also had a significant slow season or in a city with heavy regulations.
Airbnb is global. Choose your markets/locations wisely!
Good luck to you all!!
Sincerely,
Another Seasoned Airbnb Superhost
You are genuine and your transparency is much appreciated. Thank you!

You nailed it Shelby! I feel like you are the only person out there who is sharing TRUTH and the reality of the Airbnb market. The market has changed a TON. Our properties that are still performing are in highly regulated markets. Our other properties (scottsdale specifically) have completely died in bookings. So many CZcamsrs out there are acting like its still a great time to invest in Airbnbs but they also have coaching programs or are looking for investors. It's not for everyone and people should be extremely cautious. It doesnt always work and you can lose alot of money.

I cannot believe he is using your face in his thumbnails... of course he's selling course and will basically trick ppl into thinking Airbnb is still where it is 5 years ago. Being this deceitful is literally scamming. I'm glad you addressed it Shelby!
Shelby is a classy, transparent, self-made QUEEN.
You do not suck at this! You thought this process through properly and the market simply just changed.

@@ivantejeda You should absolutely make a vid on this :) I've been an AirBnB host off and on since 2013 lol. However if I have any additional questions i'll hit you up... And you got a new follower out of me :)
I’m someone who used to stay in Airbnbs a lot and have now been choosing hotels more often. My main gripe with Airbnb is that you are expected to fully clean the place, take trash out, sweep/vacuum, etc. or risk getting a bad review. Yet, you are charged absolutely outrageous cleaning fees. Like $145 at my last one, which had a long list of cleaning tasks and associated fines for not completeing them. Like a $75 fine for not taking the trash out. Ok so then what’s the cleaning fee for? At hotels you are not expected to do any of that, and you can usually also get a late check out. These days the prices are comparable so Why TF would I stay with Airbnb??
Agree 100%. And you just never know what you're going to get when you leave. Our last 'host' accused us of stealing a part off of her window blinds and tried to charge us $150.
hmm, strange. most airbnb's in the area where i live only require dishes to be washed, which makes sense. people leave a lot of messes.
@@pastrami00 that's too bad, always look at reviews before you book. Most of hosts are not like that and end up chalking up small damage to the cost of business. Cost of cleaners has gone up, much like everything else in the past year. Us hosts get none of that fee it goes all to the cleaner.
I was going to say the same thing. The hidden fees dramatically change the price and they are all different for each property. It’s not worth the effort to figure out what you’ll actually pay.
Unfortunately, inexperienced hosts are ruining an otherwise solid business model.
We can all help fix this issue by sharing honest reviews of poor hosts.
🤦♀🤦♀💔💔It's really difficult to stay afloat and make a good steady income from all this... I mean, the information is overwhelming. Pretty exhausting and on top of that I'm making losses
Lol, same thing here... I bought at a bad time, it was literally like the crash of 2011. No regrets but we just have to be patient until things get better... Hopefully the good season will come to an end 🤷♂
It happens to everyone, you have to be patient... Although some people are smart by getting professional help✌
Wow 😮. It's surprising to hear about Sabrina here. She really made a name for herself
How does it work and can I connect to it?
I used to work with her before my fogged up phone froze and erased everything. She really was a lifesaver... Please, who can connect me?
I swore by Airbnb for years but now I only book at hotels. The prices are astronomical, it makes absolutely no sense unless you travel with a big group. Unless I’m splitting the bill 4 ways, I’ll never book Airbnb again sadly
This is so informative, thanks for Your honesty and transparency. Someone had to say it, the Airbnb has negatively affected the housing market for a while now. I appreciate your approach to teaching.. To my understanding this just proves how much we need an edge as investors because playing the market like everyone else just isn’t good enough, we just need to hold onto our hopes and wait to see how things turn out because market movements are almost always unpredictable. In my portfolio, I'm noticing more red than green.
Since the crash, I've been in the red. I’m playing the long term game, so I'm not too worried but Jim Cramer mentioned there are still a lot of great opportunities, though stocks has been down a lot. I also heard news of a guy that made $250k from about $110k since the crash and I would really look to know how to go about this.
@Stanley EdwinThats true, I've been getting assisted by a FA for almost a year now, I started out with less than $200K and I'm just $19,000 short of half a million in profit.

I like that you're so transparent about the struggle. Obviously you're still able to spin it into a positive by using it as content, but it still takes a secure person to put it out there for others to criticize.

Great video! For 2023, it’s hard to nail down specific predictions for the housing market is because it’s not yet clear how quickly or how much the Federal Reserve can bring down inflation and borrowing costs without tanking buyer demand for everything from homes to cars.
@Craig Daniels Given current recession pressures, it is unlikely that the stock will yield substantial returns in the near term. However, it may be a suitable investment opportunity. I will monitor market conditions and consider purchasing when there is an improvement in the relevant economic indicators, any idea which stocks this may be?
@@tatianastarcic that's actually quite impressive, I could use some Info on your FA, I am looking to make a change on my finances this year as well.
@@richardhudson1243 Found her, I wrote her an email and scheduled a call, hopefully she responds, I plan to start 2023 on a woodnote financially.
I think you haven't heard what the Fed Reserve actually said. Powell said it's their goal to reduce home prices. He said they need a reset (which has been true for 20 years). Buyer demand MUST tank for that to occur. Prices will fall off a table in 2023.
@@ezdeezytube exactly
If you’re buying in cash it still is a big deal, the reason is is lost opportunity on the money that you invest. Right now I can get 5% on 6 to 9 month treasury yields. So for me I would have to get 10 to 12% rate of return on my money in order to put out the risk investment. Right now with everything going on in the economy I’d rather sit back and make 5% of my money rather than going through all the headache of chasing higher interest rates.

As much as I like the CZcamsr and the content I can’t lie that some thoughts came to mind …
Is this to diminish competition?
Having plenty of money in the bank VS having this same amount of money on a property… I still lose money if it’s in the bank … so why not putting this money on a property?
I’m not concerned about competition, the city of Palm Springs just passed more regulations here so it’s already deterring new people here. And people watching this video would be looking at hundreds of different markets, not just Palm Springs

Airbnbs used to be cheaper than hotels. That's not the case anymore. You'd only get an Airbnb if you wanted something unique & different. In a recession, it's no surprise people are going back to hotels which are cheaper & consistent.

I think the reality is with the flooded markets and people being frustrated with experiences with Airbnb is that a lot of people will transition to long term rentals. That being said I think there will still be a market for hosts, it just won’t be as “easy” as people want it to be. You have to care about your guests’ experience and be a good host with a well taken care of home. There are enough of us that already give that type of care, but they’re still are plenty that give us a bad name.
I quit using Air bnb permanently because of the excessive fees. I won't go back.
@@briansprayberry8844 I hear you!
I've never used them because of the outrageous fees
I’m wondering if this is happening on other STR platforms or is it just Airbnb?
With any luck, the inexperienced hosts and get-rich-quick crowd will drop out and the market will stabilize for the remaining hosts.
And Screw the folks that live next door full time! We hate these airbnb's in our neighborhood! They have made our lives hell!
People have known that airbnbs negatively affect the housing market for a long time. Adam Ruins Everything did an episode on it in like 2015.

I can assure you Sean does NOT need the money he charges for his master classes….. that money is for people who truly WANT to pursue that and make that money. He would probably do them for free, but some advice and info….. you’ve just got to pay for! I have known Sean since he was a wee kid driving an old rusty Ford Bronco II. He truly has gone very far in life, and he has not taken any hand outs. He has EARNED everything he has. Can he be cocky or arrogant seeming….. for sure. But that’s cause you’re snap judging him. I recommend Shelly, that you actually LISTEN to some of his free AirBNB content…. You may learn something. In fact, I guarantee you will.
I understand your loyalty and respect but it sounds like he's slamming her and using her as click bait for his course and clearly her point that others might not be objective holds true in this case.

@@ivantejeda Howdy I think you sent your comment to the wrong person. Unless youre doing a video on how amazing Shelbys eyes look or lighting LOL. 🤣
Great video! I totally agree with everything you said. On my last vacation the main reason why I didn’t say in an Airbnb is because of the extensive check out list. I would have to wake up early in the morning to completely clean the place, pack and be out before 10AM!
I just read another comment where the lady said the same as you here. I have used alot of airbnb's and never clean the place. I am in Europe so maybe that is the difference.
I appreciate her transparency. Honestly I would avoid Airbnb whenver possible, unless I am traveling with a large group. What hosts are charging, plus cleaning fee, and worst of all I have to added chores before I check out, just make the whole experience not worth it for me and lot of people I know. For the price Airbnb host, I better off staying at hotel, fresh towels daily, daily room cleaning, free breakfast and not mention reward pts. It is no a brainer.
Loved the vibes and editing...
Your videos are always entertaining

@@ivantejeda what are you on about?
Thanks for your candid honesty!
The OUTRAGEOUS fees are why I’ve stopped booking AirBnBs. I went from booking AirBnBs frequently from 2018-2020, to not having booked one in the past two years. Every time I’ve gone to book an AirBnB in the past two-ish years, the fees have ended up being almost as much as the nightly rate; making the actual price almost double the listed price in some cases.
same. Paying a $200 cleaning fee for what? I’ll book myself in a 5 star hotel at that point with views

Hotels are much cheaper and you have 24/7 Service.
This channel is incredible, I'm from Australia and the information still translates, its not that different here. Great videos Shelby.

10/10 video. I see renting to good long-term tenants a better strategy overall. AirBNB takes too much time to manage with all the cleaning, communication and extra maintenance imo. The best AirBNBs are run by owners who are on-top of every little detail, not what I would call "passive income".
Some airbnbs are insanely profitable, though. You will never be able to get that with long-term tenants.

Not all SHORT TERM RENTALS are airbnb. We get more bookings thru vrbo at both our rural cabins
Thank you for being real. Our bookings definitely have dropped a lot. We moved in our house for now.
I love how candid you are about it all. I don't know how you can stay this calm and collected despite the investment you made (even on much better rates than you would have now). I really admire that. IMHO, not even buying a property in cash makes really sense. Because that same amount you could use for any other investment, so cost opportunity really weighs in in the equation, but i could easily find counter arguments to my arguments as well 😁😁 investment are complicated, there is always an implied risk (which is totally different from uncertainty) - as long as you can afford it, go for it. Great video as always, Shelby!

We have an airbnb as a guest suit in our house. Things have totally slowed down a ton and we've had to change our strategies. I think this is just the market regulating itself and that's not necessarily a bad thing. That's why any investment property you buy should work as a long term rental even if you plan to use it as a short term rental.
Thank you for pointing that out! Every time my husband and I purchase a rental property we always look for Plan B and see if it would work as a long-term rental. In my opinion this is so important to account for the fluctuating housing market and changes that may occur.

@lainabrown-moneyathome My husband and I are planning to AirBnB our downstairs suite and there doesn't seem to be many (if any) videos on AirBnB-ing a room in a primary residence. Do you have any resources you'd recommend?
@@hannahabt3989 I have a few videos on this on my channel. We run an Airbnb in a suite in our house, it's not downstairs, but it has worked really well for us.
Great video thank you!

Thanks again for your Airbnb videos, they have been extremely informative! At this point outside of new construction or a property you personally want to frequently use, I'd say there are definitely better sources for passive income.

Things like stories about women getting trafficked by their Airbnb hosts, rising costs of nightly stays, and hosts requiring you to do things like the laundry, take out trash etc are some of the reasons why I personally only use hotels now.
Avoid the bad hosts. Plenty of good ones to still book with.

Great Video here, again. Please make a video about the new build strategy you mentioned at the end! That would be amazing information.

Truth never goes out of style. Honestly video is very refreshing.
I agree with your video. It may still be doing well for some. This year I am still holding my properties strictly as airbnb because I don't want to deal with renters long term and all their issues but I have certainly come close to cutting out airbnb and just possibly doing long term rentals, when things got really slow but thank God a booking always fell through by advertising on several platforms to include insurance rentals for displaced homeowners. Great video.
The only thing is after recession there will be depression. One, two more lockdowns, prices high like you can't even imagine and airplanes grounded ( just happened ) will stop people from traveling almost completely.
I think if an investment is over saturated and too much competition you need to find a way to stand out to get more business than your competition.
💡Great point Courtney! Would you mind sharing more?
