My property is ideal for longer term guests, up to 6 months, so refilling will come up.

I agree with the sentiment here - it could definitely be a selling point for the right guests. 

Aside from everything above which is all great advice, be proactive with your house rules and bake the type of guest you want into your listing.

You definitely want to go into it without name dropping airbnb right from the get go as it can have some negative connotation right off the bat, but what you want to focus on is positioning yourself as a company that focuses on accommodating short term guests under your management, assuring them you have the right rental insurance in place, cleaners, handyman (may be optional in their building) that will keep that specific unit in the condition in all of the building because that is a must in order for you to operate your business successfully.

The guests who have stayed in my house have 5 star raving host reviews on Airbnb, so I'm wondering if dirty outlets, sticky things in cabinets, torn blankets, trash not taken out are a normal occurrence I should just accept and move on from?

Hey Kal,Can you give us an update on the status of your eviction after 8 months?

In these areas there aren't many jobs and the local rental market isn't great, but these are popular tourist destinations, and foreign guests pay more than locals could, even accounting for the short peak tourist season..Re. investing in Europe, it's relatively straightforward to buy RE as a foreigner.
