VRBO Listing question

[Rudy Schmidt]

Hi Everyone,

I've been in the short term rental game for about a year.  I have one property in Pensacola, and picked up another one about 3 months ago in Gatlinburg. I had a question about my VRBO listing in Gatlinburg.  To start, my Pensacola listing shows up whenever I zoom in on the exact area or pretty close to the area of the listing, no matter if I put any dates or filters in the search.  However with my listing in Gatlinburg, I can zoom into the exact street of my listing and it will no show up unless a specific date is entered( dates not booked).  Does this seem right?  VRBO is telling me that's the way it is. This seems to put me at a disadvantage as not every guest looking always enters dates.  Any help is greatly appreciated!

Thanks

I really appreciate all the insight!! I am a premier host and the Pensacola listing is definitely more seasoned.  I just received my first 5 start review thru VRBO on the Gatlinburg listing.  I guess I just need to give it some time.  Again thanks
