Becoming an Airbnb manager

[Clayton Mitchell]

What are some of the steps to becoming a STR/Airbnb manager? Any good resources for those wanting to learn more or become STR managers? Are there any licenses I need in order to become one?

I am a realtor and having been thinking about expanding my services to include STR/Airbnb management for my clients. I have worked as a property manager for LTR's before and am currently a landlord, but I have never done a STR. I figured this may be an easier way to gain knowledge and experience in the STR space without having to go out and purchase my own. As well as gain some extra income on the side. I already have a list of vendors and a few connections to STR space locally.
