Failure to launch on Airbnb

[Kevin Hill]

So my wife and I purchased a camp on a canal. We bought it with the intent to rent as an airbnb. We created our LLC, did some renovations and fully furnished it. We have used it with my parents as a fishing camp for about a year now and never listed it. We watch videos on what you need and do's and don'ts but never list it. I watch youtube videos that say list it and learn as you go while my wife watches nothing but the horror stories, what can go wrong, and how a negative review can ruin your airbnb. While she has caught a lot of things we needed and has made several lists that we are completing it doesn't seem like the list will ever end. I guess the question is should we list and learn as we go or is a negative review something we should worry about.
