lol, i think so too.. i called up Airbnb support to clarify and they also said that they don't do any such things.. however the searches sometimes do have a complex algorithm running behind ...however just merely clicking the listing link  and not ending up booking couldn't possibly set me up for failure...

Thanks ! , actually the issue is that the prop management firm  has Airbnb pricing set 3 times more than vrbo. I wasnt getting proper support responses either... and on calling i was asked not to share the links in social media.. they have the rental listed on their own site and have established links to Airbnb and vrbo listings....i am worried that maybe they are taking me for a ride by providing such responses .. 

Hi, in a town called Bradley Beach ... i live primarily in NJ but have a rental in Bradley beach and recently added one in the Poconos area

Jersey Shore area , NJ & Poconos , PA  :) 

Hello, Had a peculiar scenario told by my property management company .  My property - lakefront property in the poconos just recently went live with a property management firm .  Upon discussing some issues with the listing - i was told to not share the airbnb and vrbo links with other freinds and in social network sites .  The reason being that if folks keep clicking without booking - that eventually drives the listing to the bottom of the search results and that is equivalent of digging myself in a hole ... any pros out there who can ascertain the above ?  any help is appreciated ... 

thanks!  so all these properties list out data from Airbnb.. those have to be conservative numbers right? assuming that people rent out during summers( peak season ) and most likely give out monthly rentals during winter... 

Thank You Ariel!  i wasnt even aware that analytics of that sort existed! this helps a lot! 

Hello Experts, i am just starting to explore into the possibility of purchasing a vacation rental around the Jersey Shore ( Belmar, asbury park , Bradley Beach ) area ... i needed to understand and check if there is a way to get an official statistic around the profitability of these rental properties?  say investing into a 350k property .. the realtor says that will yield considerable cash flow..however wanted to see if there are other neutral avenues where such statistics could be sought?
