Trying to start out

[Vance Stovall]

Hello me and my friend are intrested in starting a Airbnb MGT business. The problem is we are under 18 and are wondering if this business would be possible to run under 18. Need help.

[Drago Stanimirovic]

Hey Vance, love the ambition. While being under 18 limits you legally from signing contracts or managing property directly, it doesn’t mean you’re out of the game. You’ll need a trusted adult (like a parent or guardian) to co-sign or legally form the business on your behalf.

Start by learning the business, building a brand, and offering to help hosts with cleaning, messaging, or guest support. Once you turn 18, you can take full control.

Keep going, you’re starting earlier than most, and that’s a huge advantage.
