This habit saved me from a big surprise during my first year.The actual transfer process is simple: use a designated account for your Airbnb business.

I'm surprised to see so many posts favoring blinds over curtains.

I answer my phone 24/7.Seems to either impress people or surprise them....

Even if you want to roll the dice, at least is a calculated risk, not a surprise down the road. 

EDUCATE YOURSELF - yes, it will take time, but will lead to a selection that better meets your expectations & avoids potentially costly surprises!

Even if you are focussing on appreciation, having a property that cash flows will help when the expensive surprise problems happen.Can't stress enough to take your time, learn as much as you can, and be cautious with your first investments (but try not to get analysis paralysis).

@Elizabeth NA I am sorry you are in this situation but I am not surprised.

Its no surprise that's a great rental. 

But then again I wouldn't be surprised if they did.
