STR Occupancy and guest issues

[Daniel Blanco]

Hi there everyone, this will be my first post. So my wife and I have a rental property in an "up and coming area" of Miami. We've had  inconsistent bookings on Airbnb and VRBO. The guest's that we do get generally get don't have reviews and we end up with terrible guests. Currently, our property isn't providing cash flow and we've actually had to come out of pocket for the mortgage/bills for the last two months... Any suggestions on what to do? How do we get consistent bookings as well as better guests? We've also considered switching over to mid and long term rental.

 Change the shower curtain ASAP. It's tasteless and attracts tasteless people. I get it that it's supposed to be fun/funny - you're about to take a shower - but you are giving off a vibe that you want fun, caution to the wind YOLO renters. You don't want YOLO renters. You want boring *** people who act decent, take care of your place and leave with few traces.
