How would you approach new construction starting next to your STR?
Hey everyone!
In the next couple of months developers will be starting new construction on the lot next to my Airbnb. I'm a little worried about my guest's experience during that time. Some of my concerns include construction being loud & contractors taking up a lot of the street parking near the house. While they started cutting down trees yesterday, they said the actual construction won't start until at least early summer.
How have you all handled this to set proper expectations with your guests? Just not sure how much I should emphasize it in my listing or in messages prior to their stay. Maybe it's not a big deal? I have a 4.97 rating and would like to keep it there :)
I'm super excited about the end result though. I think it'll be a positive addition to the neighborhood and will block some noise from the main street nearby.
Any advice would be much appreciated!
