Have you bought an "Airbnb Business?"

[Katie Fiola Jones]

Hi everyone, 

I am considering the purchase of an Airbnb property. The seller is offering the property fully furnished and with the Airbnb business. It has only been operated as an Airbnb since December.  

I just wanted to see if there are others out there who have purchased Airbnbs and continued to run them as an Airbnb business. How does that work? Would you recommend it? 

Also, another layer to this - I haven't run an Airbnb business before - and the property is also out of state. 

I was also considering using it for traveling nurses or something along those lines.

I actually found out that the Airbnb side doesn't have a full kitchen. I think we're going to let this property pass because it doesn't have great long term potential.
