Because this is a vacation rental, and not your home, it's unlikely that any furnishings will be needed. It's a good idea to take time to inspect the property and to create a list that you can keep and include in the sale.
Listings with professionally taken photos are more popular and more profitable for Airbnb. Images of high quality will attract more potential buyers to your Airbnb property. While hiring a professional photographer would be the best choice, you may not have the budget or the ability to hire one. Here are some tips to help you capture high-quality images using your smartphone.
Consider including pricing spreadsheets and any other information you may have to run your vacation rental business in the sale. Perhaps you created a detailed house guide with great tips and information about the local area. A detailed list is a good idea for housekeepers and cleaners to use when cleaning up.
Take note of any areas around the house that need attention as you go. Do you see any areas that need to be patched? Do you need to paint areas? Are any baseboards damaged by luggage? Are all doors and windows in working order?
In a similar fashion to the one described, you might consider adding a professional property manager to help manage your bookings.
To help with price and sale, we recommend consulting a realty agent who has knowledge of the area's vacation rental market. They can provide you with current data and help you to review the details of your property and your company. You can also get advice on how to sell your furniture or other assets.
Keep track of the best reviews about your property on Airbnb and include them in your marketing. Reviewers can provide validation to your Airbnb listing and they can do the same for your property's potential value.
