365. Airbnb Growth Just Stalled (Here's How Small Hosts Still Win)
Airbnb growth just stalled. Here's how small hosts still win. See what your property could earn with our free Revenue Analyzer: https://strriches.com/go/365?s=pod This one's for hosts who want to stand out as Airbnb growth slows. I share fresh insights from VRMA, the industry's biggest conference. We cover why review scores matter more than ever, which property types are winning, and how to use AI without risking your operation. You'll leave with clear steps to outperform in a flat market. Watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@ShortTermRentalRiches What you'll get out of this: - Airbnb supply grew just 1.6% this year - down from 20% post-pandemic - Homes with 6+ bedrooms outperform other property types right now - A 4.9 review average earns 29% more than a 4.6 average - Only 20% of listings are on 2+ channels - expanding beyond Airbnb wins If you'd rather have a team handle the day-to-day, that's what we do at Corzly. We run guest messaging, pricing, and listings for hundreds of rentals, all behind the owner's own brand.

364. Airbnb House Rules You Can't Use After Nov 20 (And What to Write Instead)
Starting November 20th, Airbnb is limiting what you can put into your Airbnb house rules. No fines, no surprise fees, no checkout chores, and most rental agreements and ID checks are out. Download our updated Airbnb House Rules Template: https://strriches.com/go/364?s=pod This episode is for Airbnb hosts who need to update their Airbnb house rules. We walk through the 7 rules you can enforce, what becomes a request, and how to protect your property. You'll know exactly what to change before the 20th. Watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@ShortTermRentalRiches What you'll get out of this Airbnb now allows only 7 enforceable house rules - everything else is a request No more fines, surprise fees, or checkout chores in your rules You can still charge for damages and smoking, but not through your house rules Local laws and contracts override Airbnb's rules in some cases If you'd rather have a team handle the day-to-day, that's what we do at Corzly. We run guest messaging, pricing, and listings for hundreds of rentals, all behind the owner's own brand. Happy to show you how it works: https://strriches.com/go/364-corzly?s=pod

363. 5 Winter Amenities Airbnb Guests Search For (Plus What They Cost)
Spas add 8 to 27% to annual revenue in mountain markets, and these winter amenities keep you from getting filtered out of search. Get our amenity checklist with cost estimates: https://strriches.com/go/363?s=pod This episode is for owners of short-term rentals in cold, snowy or mountain markets who want to be found in search. I walk through the winter amenities worth adding, from hot tubs and fire pits to saunas, EV chargers and small comfort items. We cover what they cost and how to match them to your guest profile. After listening, you can pick which upgrades fit your property and photograph them for your listing. Watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@ShortTermRentalRiches What you'll get out of this: - Airbnb ranks the hot tub as the 6th most searched filter worldwide, so skipping one can hide you - Airbnb does not filter 12-seaters from 4-seaters, so a cheap inflatable spa still helps your search ranking - A sauna only fits when your average night rate is high, like $400 or $500, not $65 - Cold weather drains electric vehicle batteries faster, so a Level 2 charger and covered parking help guests in snow If you'd rather have a team handle the day-to-day, that's what we do at Corzly. We run guest messaging, pricing, and listings for hundreds of rentals, all behind the owner's own brand.

361. Vrbo's 12% Host Fee Starts Oct 29: What Hosts Need to Do Now
On October 29, Vrbo moves every host to a flat 12% commission. If you connect through a property management system, you've been paying 5%. On a $600 booking, that's $42 more out of your payout.

In this episode, we walk through what Airbnb's AI changed this year, how our team turns the photo tour off, and how to check what guests actually see.
