"Some sites and threads mention a 7-day minimum stay requirement, others make no mention of it."

It will be great if somebody clarify this issue. Palm Beach county website  is not easy to navigate...

I am also considering to try AirBNB  this fall.  May be we should start new Meetup club for AirBNB investors of West Palm Beach county to share everybody experience?

Brian, actually I am thinking to buy another house or may be two in WPB area in a year or two when I move here from Atlanta. But, likely not that close to the water, I do not want both houses be flooded in the same time. Open for suggestions. Preferences - safe area with good renters and may be some studentets for my wife -piano teacher.

I am reaching because I own rental house in West Palm Beach. Now I am exploring short term rental opportunity through Airbnb and etc. Goal is to have a chance to stay sometimes there on Christmas or Thanksgivings myself. And also I read some horror stories about problems with eviction of not paying tenants. I do not have to evict Airbnb guests, big plus. Would, anybody , please, share his or her experience with Airbnb or VRBO. Can I make some money? My previous long time rent was 1800$ a month, now it is 2000$. House has 3 br, 2 bath, a pool and located just across the bridge from Singer Island, 1 mile from good free public beach. Does it make sense to go from1 year rent to Airbnb kind of rent? House is in good shape, but has no furniture. I open to any recommendations about furniture, utilities and etc.

I stayed myself with Airbnb in Italy and California, but totally new as Airbnb host.
