Sharing a success story - first flip to an Airbnb property!
We closed on our 1st investment property around Thanksgiving, and put in some elbow grease and many trips to Lowe's to get it ready to rent on Airbnb. It took a little longer than expected (they always do, don't they??) but since we both have full-time jobs and did most of the work ourselves, I consider it a success! We also stayed under budget, which was really important to us (and caused a lot of fights, lol)
It is officially up on Airbnb, and our first guests checked in on Monday for a week long stay. We have kept our prices low this month since we don't have any reviews on this property, but we are already booked for Birkshire Hathaway (huge tourist event for Omaha) and a few Creighton games.
This post isn't really a question, I guess, I just wanted to do a little bragging and also thank the BP community for being there to answer all of our questions along the way! Does anyone else have any other success stories they would like to share?

Congrats! What part of the city are you in? Curious to know what may work in our city for short term rental.
