Benefit of listing on VRBO in addition to Airbnb
We recently launched our first short-term rental on December 22, 2023, with AirBnb. So far we have gotten four reservations, two for December and two for January 2024. It is a single-family home so it can be listed on VRBO. I am setting up our VRBO account and quickly realize it is much less user-friendly than Airbnb. I cannot even find the correct answer for tax options on VRBO so I did not finish the VRBO listing.
My question is, is it still worth listing on VRBO?
Thank you.

Absolutely use VRBO. If I had to use just one, I would choose VRBO. Much more host-friendly...you can actually get a real person who speaks English when you call customer service! I also found that they attract a 'higher class' of guest than AIR.
Regarding tax, just look it up for your City and State, and enter that amount. Easy. And well worth it.....
