Timing AirBnB/VRBO “live” date

[Derek Miller]

Getting things finalized for our first AirBnB. We’ll be moving out of our current house at the end of February, and then I’d like it open to guests beginning in March.

Do you become a host early on and have to blackout dates before it’s ready, or do you wait until it is ready to go live? I know there are perks when first starting, so just trying to time it properly.

Appreciate any input/experience

@Derek Miller 5 to 7 days prior to the date you would like your first warm body is optimal.
