Homeowner Seeking Advice on Airbnb Partnership for My Duplex

[Christian Melendez]

BiggerPockets community!

I'm excited to share that I'm a new homeowner and recently purchased a duplex with the intention of house hacking. To my surprise, a company has expressed interest in renting out one of my units for 1 year to 18 months, with plans to turn it into an Airbnb afterward.

I'm thrilled about the opportunity, but I'm also new to this, and I want to make sure I'm well-prepared. Have any of you experienced a similar situation or have insights to offer? I'd greatly appreciate any recommendations or advice on the steps to take moving forward, particularly in terms of screening, contracts, and ensuring a smooth partnership.

Thanks in advance for your guidance!
