Another tip here is to let them bring their own linens (fairly common) so you save money that way! 

Anyone have any tips?

I'm definitely up for some tips!

Welcome to the community and be ready for a huge amount of information at your finger tips.

Any tips would be appreciated

I also find that depending on the tenant, my one Airbnb property has less wear and tear because it's constantly cleaned and maintained versus my other rentals where the families living there settle in and accumulate stuff - which makes it hard to deep clean regularly (to my liking) as well as just the constant daily wear and tear from kids etc. 

If no kids do a nice trailer and lot.  

If you are single or married without kids and an understanding spouse.

@Constance Kang  just think of MLM pitchs of the 80s and 90s  same actors same heart strings they tug at.I be he got up showed pictures of wife and kids and made a big ta do about doing it for family blah blah balh..

Eugene could be a great choice for STRs with the university driving consistent demand with college kids + family, and Portland offers year-round potential with its already strong market for both MTR and STR.
