Vacation Home Rental - Should I use AirBNB or VRBO or an Agent

[Steve Puglisi]

Bought a house down the CT shore trying to decide if I rent it myself (via VRBO ABNB) or give it to an agent who has area expertise (and multiple rentals).  This is my first year owning the house, high demand area. Looking to set it more for weekly rentals (not one or two days).  Its about 45mins from where I live. Agent takes 10% of the rental and I think she takes care of getting the rental agreement signed.

Any experience with either? pros or cons? thoughts?
