Tiny House Trailer as Airbnb?

[Account Closed]

BP Community,

Recently completed construction on a 24FT THOW. The most recent podcast got me thinking about about the potential it may have as an Airbnb. The unit is currently in Baton Rouge LA, but can be moved anywhere in the country. Should I start shopping for a lot and build RV hookups? 

Would love feedback from anyone with experience in short term rentals. Below is a link with more information on the home. Please no zoning law lectures.

Dear Ariel,

You've got that right. I've done alittle studing on the tiny house-AirBnB thing and you could be more correct about the patrons of the AirBnB loving unique and corky places to stay and they pay rather handsomely for the priviledge of staying .  Baton Rouge should like a good place especially at mardi graw ( I'm sure I'm spelling that wrong)  Also maybe Sturgis mc run. You might want to look in to where events like the aforemention happened and then advertise the tiny home near that event site and if you get a bite you could then find a temp site, if you cant find a site you can let the customer know it won't be available this year or whatever you decide to say, In this way you wouldn't be moving it unnessecarily and if you plan your calendar right it would minimize the number of moves you'd make with the tiny home,  It's just one girls thoughts best of luck to you
