Starting Airbnb Business in Denver CO

[Alex Bockey]

I'm trying to start an Airbnb in my hometown of Denver, CO. My plan is to rent from a landlord rather than save money to buy a place myself. This is because, due to my research, I should be able to start making income off of this method much faster.

My problem right now is finding a landlord who is willing to rent to me under the agreement that I will be using the place for Airbnb. I've stepped up my aggressiveness, with a certain number of places to view every week and a stronger and more confident speech for the landlords. However, I still have had no luck getting someone to agree. I have no history with Airbnb, and my credit is still in recovery (I have fixed all former debts, but my credit score has yet to catch up).

Does anyone have any advice? More importantly, is there anyone (especially in the Denver area) with experience doing this sort of thing that can offer advice?
