Bougie in a Backpack

Ep. 80: Make Money While You Vacation using Airbnb with Amber (@amberonpoints)


Listen Later

Today we are chatting with Amber (⁠⁠@amberonpoints)! shares her experience of using Airbnb to rent out her house while she's away, allowing her to travel affordably. Amber started renting out her house on Airbnb when she and her family would leave for a month every summer. She aims to make at least $1,200 to $1,500 in profit per month of renting her house. Amber hares her experience with renting out her home on Airbnb and using the income to fund her travels. She shares tips for maximizing earnings and using credit card rewards to offset travel expenses. In this episode, you will learn:

  • Locking certain areas of the house and marketing it as family-friendly can attract guests.
  • Being upfront about any issues or imperfections in the house can help manage guest expectations.
  • Setting a minimum number of nights for bookings can help avoid party groups and ensure a more pleasant experience.
  • The amount of money you can make from renting out your house on Airbnb will vary depending on location and other factors. Renting out your home on Airbnb can provide a steady income stream to fund your travels.
  • Longer stays can be more profitable than short-term rentals, but they require careful planning and management.
  • Maintaining good relationships with neighbors and complying with HOA regulations is essential for successful Airbnb hosting.
  • Offering discounts for longer stays can attract more guests and increase earnings.
  • Using credit card rewards can help offset travel expenses and make your trips more affordable.
  • ...and more!
