Mid Term Bookings
Hi,
My question is for those who do mid and short term rentals. One regarding payment and the other regarding blocking off dates.
My property is generally rented out on a short term basis through Air BNB. I have a request for a 6 month stay. I am wondering how payment is usually done for a long stay like this? It's not all paid upfront generally, correct?
And if it's not paid upfront, do you block off all the months on your short term calendars?
Thank you!

You'd treat them more as a long-term tenant. They'll sign a lease and pay you monthly. I would imagine AirBnb is set up to accommodate that request, but if not, you just have to figure out the rent collection portion. Yes, you would block off those months. If the property is leased, then it isn't available for other tenants to rent.
