Real Estate on Wheels, lets talk about.

Colin Higgins
Posted

As I purchase my first property I'm looking to rent a room from time to time (the ol househack) to offset the mortgage. Lucky for me, my home is on a good size lot and my community is boat/RV friendly. I'm looking to purchase a bumper pull travel trailer or toy hauler later on this year. something I will appreciate and use regardless. I'm looking to airbnb it for additional income and was curious what other peoples experiences have been. Specifically what they charged per night, insurance costs, horror stories, and upkeep.

Search Airbnb for this type of property and use the Enemy Method (look it up here on BP - Luke Carl teaches it) to see what others are charging in your area for these types of properties.  

Awning.com has an Airbnb Estimator tool, as does Airbnb - https://www.airbnb.com/host/ho...

You would need to handle plumbing for water and sewer if you don't want to drive it to dump it.  Have you looked into that yet?
