Transferring active STR to new owner

[Katelyn Atcavage Robideaux]

Hi BP fam,

I am working on a few deals that are currently active air bnb + VRBO’s. I understand that the listings cannot be transferred to the new owner and that an entirely new listing must be created.

In the past, we’ve done an email to all bookings, asking them to rebook with the new listing link. I’ve also read, on BP Forums, that the buyer wrote in the contract to have the seller manage the future bookings for 60 days after closing, giving them 10%.

I am curious - what are your tips on the most successful/efficient ways to transfer an active air bnb to the new owner? What has worked best for you?

Any insight is welcome!
