Either the owner or the co-host will need to live locally in order to register.

To me this makes sense because a one bedroom can host 1-2 people easily with a competitive ADR and cleaning fee, while 4+ beds can host multiple families and split up a higher ADR between more adults. 2 bedrooms can be price competitive with 1 bedrooms and attract the same guest avatar plus small families or 2 couples. 

I enjoy hosting and like to be the first point of contact with my guests. 

My name is Mercy and I am a virtual assistant and co-host for short-term rentals.

This is why I highly suggest hosts check into the info Justin Ford has, and the educational videos and course he provides.

You might get quicker answers for there by reviewing some of the best STR options in your area on Airbnb and then finding the hosts or co-hosts offline to ask questions.

Welcome @Brittany Henry.The major meetups are CTREIA and events hosted by @Devin Peterson, @Brandon Rush, @Stephanie Cabral, @Ryan Luby.  

We provide the residents with a list of names and phone numbers in advance, and warn the buyers NOT to arrive early OR stay past the end of the viewing.At the end of the viewing, our resident gets their e-gift certificate immediately by email or text.They are usually delighted and often ask us when they can host another!

How do I become a co-host with no experience?

If you're anywhere near Boise I host one monthly and we'd love to meet you!
