Ep. 115 | Is AirBnB Still Worth it in 2022? With Kyle Stanley

Open on Podcast

Host Chris Larsen interviews Airbnb operator/educator Kyle Stanley (Fresno, CA). Kyle describes his rapid scaling from 1 to ~60–70 listings using rental arbitrage (master leases) and co-hosting (managing others' properties for 20–25% of gross), claiming large monthly net revenue while minimizing his weekly time. They cover market realities for 2022 — more competition and lower occupancy for average listings, but outsized returns for well-differentiated/top properties — common mistakes (poor deal evaluation, wrong furnishing spend, weak guest screening), and recommended tools (PriceLabs for dynamic pricing, Hostaway/Hospitable for PMS). Kyle also promotes his STR Kickstart course (lifetime access, usually $1,497; $500 discount for this audience) and smaller market-eval product ($97).
