Airbnb Arbitrage in Austin, TX

[Aaron Daniel]

Planning to try my hand at Airbnb arbitrage. I have never owned or been a host/landlord and am itching to get in the business. Due to limited capital I’m planning to give Airbnb arbitrage a go.

The strategy is to sign a long term lease at an apartment complex that allows their units to be rented as Airbnb’s. I’ve read in Austin this can be legally done by obtaining a license and in fact know a guy who does it.

Curious if anyone has given this strategy a go? Any pointers for a newbie?

Thanks,
