Hey guys,

My property is near Lackland AFB in San Antonio, listed on Airbnb and VRBO. I have been trying to get longer term stays but nothing. I have it listed on FF for almost a year, Zillow, through rent redi, ALE, home.mil but yet to receive any tractions. Any suggestions?

You may be in a very saturated market. How much competition is there? You might try posting a link to your property from any of those sites. Folks here could review and provide some recommendations perhaps. Not every property is suitable for MTRs. If it's a 3/1 or a 4/1 you're going to struggle. Location, as in neighborhood, really, really matters too. And, as @Bill B. you have to be priced appropriately.

    @Jeremy Rosen  A new listing with no reviews will also give alot of guests pause so that is something to consider. For mid-term specifically this is probably more of an issue because it will take time to get those additional reviews and recover.  1 review every 3-4 months if they leave one.  If she had bad content I would agree with you but its just not possible to determine what that bad review is. I guess a response could have cleared that up.
