[Cole Simpson]

You’ve done the due diligence needed to start a vacation rental property business, selected the best location you could find, invested your hard-earned money, and listed your short-term rental on Airbnb.

Now, you realize that that’s just the beginning of your business.

Once you start getting bookings, you realize that Airbnb occupancy rates in some seasons are higher than others.

Like typical human nature, you begin to desire more. You want full bookings all around the year.

Here are 6 ways you can boost your occupancy in 2022:

1. Price optimization

2. Highlight your best amenities

3. Target to get good reviews

4. Leverage social media

5. Lower the minimum stay between bookings

6. Offer special deals

What would you add to this?

I may be among the minority but i don’t think occupancy rates are a standard alone metric. 100% occupancy at average nightly rates < 65% occupancy at premium rates IMO.
