STR property purchased already on AirBNB with bookings

Posted

I recently purchased a property that already was listed on AirBNB with bookings for the foreseeable future. I already have an AirBNB account myself for another property, and I see that the general advice is to move the listing over to your account and have the guests re-book their stays on the new listing. The seller agreed that I can take over his AirBNB account if preferred (he only had this listing) and he got a lot of feedback and superhost status. 

The listing I have on my account is for an apartment I generally do long-term rentals on and only do short-term rentals during the summer. I rather want to move this listing and change the account details on the one previously owned by the seller so that I get to keep the feedback and superhost status and then close down my other account. 

The question is, can I do this without having any issues with AirBNB? Anyone with experience in doing this?
