South Seattle STR

Posted

I'm considering making the master bedroom in my home an airbnb. I can easily add a direct entry from outside and close up the existing one to the remainder of the house. it's approximately 300 square feet with a master bath. I'm South Seattle, along Rainier. I was looking at other "studio" airbnbs in the area renting for about $60 - $100 per night. I'm not sure if it would be worth it being that I'm still 20min from downtown. Anyone have airbnbs in South Seattle/Renton area that can speak to this? - I guess my main concern is the location and vacancies...

    @Levi Dobson, on airbnb, you will need to comp based on a monthly rate, not a one night rate. You can try the MTR, instead of STR!
