STR booking for others??

[Henry T.]

Hi everybody,

Long time landlord, but new to STR.

I've been getting a few requests lately of Airbnb members wanting to book for their "parents" or for their "kids" who are coming to town visiting. I turn them all down and suggest their interested party  sign up for an account and book themselves. I also require  ID's before check in. Do you get these requests often? How do you handle them?  Thank you.

Gotta go with your gut. So often it speaks the loudest and clearest regardless of what the brain says.
