Renting out properties entails many responsibilities in managing tenants to adhere to rules. One of our guests for this episode learned about it the hard way through a party incident resulting in a cease and desist letter from his building and many angry neighbors that forced him to sell his property and lost over $30,000.
We have two seasoned short-term rental hosts in the industry, David Krauss and Dana Lubner, as our guests in today’s episode. David is AirBNB’s longest-running super host and the Co-Founder and CEO of Rent Responsibly, a short-term rental advocacy platform that helps local alliances create a sustainable future for STRs in communities, with Dana as its head of advocacy.
In this episode, David and Dana will talk about their love for hospitality that kept their advocacy going. They will share their views on responsible hosting, and advocating it through the Rent Responsibly network. David will also share about the NoiseAware system and its benefits to STRs. They will also share their learnings from their Rent Responsibly journey and their advice on finding the best short-term management system.
This episode will help short-term rental owners to realize their responsibilities and learn how to rent responsibly! Do not miss this episode!
