Renting a Pool Home on Airbnb/VRBO

[Cody Kinser]

Hey everyone! I'm new to the community and looking for some advice. I own a SFR in Jacksonville, FL that is rented out to a full time tenant and managed by a local PM. I'm considering switching to short term renting via Airbnb, VRBO, etc but am concerned about the extra liability of the pool with short-term guests.

I already have good liability coverage along with an umbrella policy, but curious if anyone has had any major headaches or major success in the draw of a pool home. 

After checking the rental apps it seems I would have one of only a handful of pool homes in the area which makes it tempting to switch strategies since I don’t currently have much cash flow. 

Thanks in advance!
