Must have to drive revenue for AirBnB/VRBO?

Hey all - 

Looking for feedback and "must-haves" for those in the short-term rental game. I am looking to acquire primarily single-family properties as well as provide more value and insights to investors seeking the same strategy (I am an agent fulltime). What are some key features that have made your property more desirable? How do you consistently generate bookings on Airbnb/VRBO? Approximately how much do you invest in furnishing the property in order for it to be highly desirable?

The article outlines that consumers desire these features:

  • Reachable by car 
  • Entire properties 
  • Longer stays 
  • High-end features
  • Clean and Safe 
  • Short Lead Times 

Would love some insights from the short-term Pros out there!
