How have you all been dealing with showing your property address on Booking.com? I just listed our property but want to hide the entire address until the guests formally book.

Appreciate your feedback!

I had a  horrible experience with booking.com.  Few bookings, lots of cancels, inaccurate information and a total fail synching with other software. 

I have been using booking.com and Airbnb mostly. People complain about booking.com cancellations. I have fixed that completely. 

Airbnb types are seeking cheap and deeply discounted. Booking.com people pay a premium pricing and are good guests. I don't get a huge amount, but it is a good stream.

My secret is I use the one-hour window to allow cancellation. They made an error or are just confused, it weeds most of them out. I use strict / flexible cancellation policy. Any cancellation within 60 days I get the full payment.

I realize there are Regional differences. Booking.com leaves Airbnb in the dust in my area.

Hey Joel! It all depends on the deal. Did the realtor find you the land? Have they help you during the construction process such as picking out finishes and walking the property for you?  What is the price point? 

Oh, not trying to sell you on our PM services.  Our Office Manager in conjunction with accountant remit the taxes directly for all of our units but I see the emails come in from the state and counties about our accounts and payment remittance.  I would call the county and state taxation offices or go on their sites and set up accounts.  It is not too complicated to do
