VRBO and review of guests.

Our guests are 98% family related and good. We got a booking request of few men and the inquiry one joined VRBO in 2015 but 0 review. We called VRBO and this is the answer: people can change emails and get rid of the reviews. If this is true, it is risk to accept booking from VRBO when some rats are there. How to add requirements to have ID, picture and at least 1 review to book in VRBO like AirBNB?

I never worry about reviews or trying to lookup someone. Hotels don't do this.

I get a picture ID from anyone renting the house.

I charge a hefty nightly night and if they can afford it they are approved.

I have better things to worry about than trying screen people.
