Just a general question: Will it make a difference if the guests stay for 28 vs 30 days? For instance, if it's 28 days, under the law, they are short term renters and eviction is much easier?

Hey @Eric Nguyen, you should be able to cancel their booking, but it's going to hurt your listing at this stage. I would give them a call and see if they can help you out.

Everything could be just fine, but it only make sense to have as much protection you can get.

You could just send them an agreement via Docusign etc and see what happens. You will need to get one whipped up asap as you don't have much time.

What area is the rental in? State/town?

Rental is in California.

Do you or anyone have a link to a rental agreement I could use?

I think everyone covered everything @Eric Nguyen, but I have to reiterate that you need to get a signed lease for over 30 days. That is when tenants rights convey and you could be stuck with someone who won't leave and you have no lease to back anything up. AirBNB will not assist you in this regard.

Thank you and to all who have provided insightful responses, it is greatly appreciated!

Since I already accepted the request, does AirBnb allow hosts to rescind (guest is checking in on 1/26)? Just thinking of a scenario where I cannot get the guest to comply and sign an agreement.

Great news, I just confirmed my first vacation rental and they'll be staying for one month! What are the differences when dealing with longer stay STRs? For instance, do I ask this person to take out the trash on trash day? Do I leave more supplies out? Anything else I should consider?

Large size for sure anyway. But you don't want to rely on getting the laundry done from the previous guest. You will want to have enough on site in your linen closet to replenish everything without doing laundry right then, too much pressure...what if a guest leaves late and the new one is coming in an hour?

This is great advice. Puts me at ease already!

And thank you everyone for being helpful!

Hi everyone!

Given these details on my STR:
3BR, 3BA

1st BR - bunk (twin and full), sheets and comforter
2nd BR - Queen, sheets and comforter
3rd BR - King, sheets and comforter
3BA - shower and hand towels

What size washer and dryer would you recommend ideally?

Also, I understand one load is the goal for turn-around, but realistically do owners do two or more loads assuming the specs above?
