Someone wants to Airbnb my place?

I was showing one of my rental units and someone came to see it and offered to rent it from me and then Airbnb it out as short term rentals for workers and then once the theme park opens up for families visiting the area. Essentially I would get my rent each month and they would serve as property manager and be responsible for all maintenance calls and requests and keeping it full. Has Anyone done this? What do you think of it?

I have Airbnbed a personal residence before and had no issues with our home being treated poorly.  Of course there is always an exception but renting in general has this risk.  I would want to increase the rent or get a percentage of the Airbnb income.  You may be able to see what's going on by looking on Airbnb yourself as far as availability to your unit and asking price.  Seems like a good way to get your unit rented and make a little extra with no extra hassel.  If rental applicants are not a problem then just move on to another applicant.
