So why do i do this?
I see the passion short-term rental hosts have for their properties, especially those with one, two, or a few rentals. I see them losing time, guests and money to unoptimized listings, unreliable property managers and a lack of auto- mation in their business.
I see Airbnb as a tool for peace. I’m going to get a little phil- osophical for a moment. Airbnb creates connections that never otherwise would have existed.
Instead of letting the TV tell you what country X thinks of country Y, it’s better to find out from real people: hosts and the locals you interact with.
Ultimately, I’m helping hosts to create better experiences for guests to make the act of travel more pleasant and in-demand. That’s my dirty little secret. There are more bad hosts than bad guests.

If you’re not sure, let me help you decide what’s right for you.
I had a disparity between my listings. An Airbnb agent basically said it was complicated and she didn’t exactly know why, but that the listing you optimized appeared easier to read, was more approachable, and ranked higher as a result.
