Selling Our Cashflowing Airbnb

We have our 5br 3 ba Historic home in Mansfield MO listed on the MLS, but I wish there were some way to target an Airbnb or "house hacking" audience. We had an onsite manager who lived in a part of the house and we rented out the rest. Someone could buy this house, live in it and manage the Airbnb and have Airbnb revenue pay the mortgages and utilities. And have money left over!

It has rented very well, we opened in May and have grossed $12,000.00 and have $2000.00 more booked for September so far... we are selling for $275,000.00. It would be a perfect place for a couple or  a small family to house hack and actually make money after the mortgage is paid! It is located 1 mile from the Laura Ingalls Wilder Museum which draws many to the area and it has a connection to LIW as she wrote some of her books there and was friends with the owners. She designed her home after it...the house came with many rare photos of LIW and her husband. 

We get bookings for all kinds or reasons.  There is very little out there for people to stay and not much at all for large groups. We can sell it furnished so it is basically ready to go. Any suggestions on how to market it better? Is there a dedicated site somewhere that focuses on selling Airbnbs? If there isnt ,there should be!

Agreed - find a good agent that has experience with selling investment properties (esp. STRS).  The facebook group AirBNB homes for sale is also very large and a good place for these
