making money with timeshares and airbnb

[William Brown]

I have been recently looking into doing airbnb host with timeshares but Im a little lost on how to go about it. How much money would I need to get started in renting out timeshares on Airbnb. And is anybody doing this and if you are would you mind sharing any advice thanks.

I loved renting my DC-area apartment on Airbnb. I would list for $160 a night during the summer (more for special occasions like the Pope’s visit) and around $90 during other months. Since it was my primary residence, it was already furnished and I took my own pictures. Cleanup was also my responsibility.

Apartments are starting to mention Airbnb and ban using the space as a rental in their lease agreements.

I’m looking to find a duplex to repeat this concept, and furnishing costs are definitely a biggie. I think the investment would be well worth it especially during the touristy months.

At this point, I’m hooked on the earning potential and ease of use. Not to mention, Airbnb’s offer unique experiences, more amenities, and less cost than a hotel.
