Year Long AirBNB Request

[Steve Sorensen]

I own an AirBNB in Denver and I just got a year long request and the person doesn't have any reviews. Is this an automatic no go? I usually do month long rentals (as a minimum) but committing to a full year with a tenant makes me nervous. A year of rent sounds great on the surface but I'm wondering why they wouldn't just pursue a normal year long (long term) rental...maybe they've been bad renters or have bad credit or low income. The more I'm thinking about this the more red flags I'm thinking of. Thoughts?

Only think I can think is that it’s tougher to find fully furnished long term rentals through the normal long term rental channels.
