Wear and tear on your house, your furnishings and your supplies is inevitable. We talk about when it's bad enough to charge guests, when it's just the cost of doing business and how to keep calm, cool and professional.
We wanted to take the time to walk all y'all through our design services tiers. We think everyone (including us) can use another set of eyes and some kind advice on our listings before and during the renting process. Check out our design advice videos (Part 1, Part 2) of Jordan's upstate NY farmhouse, where we do a complete session from top to bottom.
In this episode we cover listener questions! Chloe from France asks about starting and managing a family property as a short-term rental, remotely. We talk her through the pros and cons of hiring a management company or a family/friend. Also discussed is wether longer-term rentals are desirable and why.
We heard from Rob who is converting a family vacation home in New England into a short term rental and possible wedding/event venue. We discuss our thoughts on to 'wedding venue' or not to venue, that is the question!
As usual, send your questions in the form of audio or written to shampooandbooze@gmail.com to get your questions, answered.
In this episode we nerd out about CAFFEINE options in your short term rental. Have you ever been to an Airbnb and can't find a coffee maker?!?! We have, and we think that's insane. Hear us talk about the best options for making coffee, buying coffee and offering guests the best cups while they stay with you. Also, hear our disdain for using K-cup or single-cup coffee-pod makers. Ugh. (Ryanne loves the Bonvita drip maker!)
