I currently work in New York City doing investment banking.

Our property management division, Island Stays Hawaii, charges 20% for full service and we are the highest rated host on Airbnb for O'ahu that has more than 20 properties under management.  

Let’s turn this thread into a mini support group for MTR hosts.Whether it’s finding reliable guests, convincing landlords, or handling turnovers — drop your #1 challenge below.I’ve coached hundreds of hosts and can share real solutions that worked (not theory).Sometimes all it takes is one strategy tweak to turn things around.So… what’s holding you back right now?

There are the AZREIA meetings and I also host a meetup in Mesa, Arizona.

We host free Simplified Real Estate Meetups all across Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Maine — about 15 each quarter.

You can definitely charge a smoking fee if it’s stated in your listing or house rules, but be prepared that Booking.com is less host-friendly than Airbnb.

It's really just a matter of time before their greed drives enough traffic and hosts to another avenue, so I'm encouraged to hear others say they see an uptick in direct bookings. 

Drop your city + a few details below (like nearby employers, hospitals, or universities), and I’ll give you my quick take on whether it has solid MTR potential.I’ve been helping hosts analyze markets across the U.S. — from healthcare hubs to engineering project cities — and I love sharing insights.Ready?

@Brendan Connolly Hosts seem to be more concerned about a bad review than holding guests responsible and/or leaving honest reviews of guests.
