Airbnb tech team is working on it they said but this is how I added categories besides the ones Airbnb suggested for my listings) Hi Garrett, I'm new to the STR world, but I own a digital marketing company for insurance and have been an SEO for the last 16 years.

Central Ohio presents a lot of growth and is landlord friendly but highly recommend you do your own research and figure out what market you want to invest in. 

I FOUND THIS DEAL THROUGH WORD OF MOUTH I WAS TELLING DIFFERENT PEOPLE IN MY CIRCLE I WAS READY TO BUY AND LONG BEHOLD A BUDDY OF MINES WHO IS A REALTOR PRESENTED ME THE DEAL AND LET ME MEET THE OWNER WE HAD A GREAT CONVERSATION AS HE TOURED THE PROPERTY WITH ME HE EXPLAINED HE HAD HIGHER OFFERS BUT BECAUSE HE SEE IM A YOUNG GUY DOING THE RIGHT THING HE REALLY WANTED TO SELL IT TO ME AND THE REST IS HISTORY !
