First Time Airbnb Host

[Cody Brookes]

Hi BP, 

I have a home in North Fort Worth/Keller area 3 bedroom 2 bathroom with a converted garage into a game room and I am about to move out to get my second home. I am debating on renting it normally or furnishing it and putting it on airbnb to go ahead and make more money to put into more properties. Airdna states I can make close to 40k a year but I wanted to see an anyone else has tried this in my air and what your experience has been?

Thanks 

Cody

Mike and Culin gave some great advice. Do what they said - it will help you analyze. For what it's worth - my three Airbnb homes fit the description of yours exactly - 3/2 with converted garage to game room. We grossed 47k per home this year. So when I saw the numbers you gave, I just had to laugh and say "Yup." For what it's worth, I'm in a different, and less known market - New Bern, NC. Do your research, and good luck with whatever you decide!
