Chapters

If you get an inquiry, if you get a reservation from Airbnb, definitely make sure that you check the reviews. We want to do this regardless of the reservation length, but I would say if someone has zero reviews, that would make me a little worried. Our team, for example, is not accepting anyone with less than two reviews and good reviews. And so we have the ability to deny guests if we're accepting inquiries. Right. And most of the time, when we're trying to rent our properties for a longer period of time, we've switched them to inquiries. So definitely make sure that you're looking at the reviews for any inquiries that come across and that you are not overlooking anything. Right. If anything seems fishy, make sure to ask some more questions.
