Hey BP community,

I just posted my MTR on FurnishedFinder. I’d love some recommendations on what I should add/remove. Thanks for the feedback!

What you have looks very nice.

Just a couple thoughts (obviously all my own opinion) - 

1. I wouldn't include the floor plan.

2. Label all the pictures with clear descriptions. 

3. Do the bedrooms have their own keypads? If not I would add that and include it in the description

4. The furnishing is nice, but sparse. It feels a little... clinical. Get some art, blankets, pillows, rugs, side tables, bookshelves (with books), etc. Here's an example of one of our listings: https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/7... 

5. If you're listing by room list amenities of the room, for instance: "Separately keypaded bedroom with King bed, 55" TV, blackout curtains, and sound machine"

6. If you don't have a TV, blackout curtains, and sound machine (or box fan) in the bedroom I would highly suggest adding those

7. Get some barstools for that kitchen bar

9. I would opt for a coffee pot over a Keurig for 30 day stays. 

10. put some wine in that wine rack

11. Get a spice rack for the kitchen counter - you can get a decent one on amazon for not that much

12. I would retake the pictures with the TV off. 

13. list the wifi speed for the house

14. "Cozy" "Comfortable" "Oasis" and "Safe" are good catch words for an MTR listing

15. Make it clear if you're pet friendly or not

16. Fake plants are your friend

17. If you can swing it having a desk space somewhere goes a long way

I'm sure I could come up with some more but happy to chat if you want to reach out. (We do MTR's in Winston Salem, NC)
