A great solution nowadays is to turn a place that is not being used into an Airbnb. We’ve put together some tips here about what to do and what you’ll need. Your first step is research. It is very important to learn the regulations of the platform and create an account to list your home.

Renovation or repair?

Renovation is a key point: It is definitely necessary if it is a rather old, run-down place or if it simply does not have a modern aesthetic. Even if the house has, for example, an “old-time” aesthetic, it must be functional and properly laid out. If your place only needs repairs or various improvements, you just do them because it is an investment that in the long run, will bring you profit.

Bathroom and kitchen

Bathrooms are one of the first things that people who use the Airbnb platform notice. So bathroom renovation is something you should also pay attention to. Let’s not forget  that bathroom renovation generally increases the value of a property!

Decoration

The design of each space determines its aesthetics. Choose the design of the space according to the audience you will target. It is not necessary to know from the beginning who you will address with the Airbnb you are preparing, but whether you will configure it for families or business travellers is something that you must take into account! But this will determine the furnishing, decoration and atmosphere of the house.

Photography

Competition on the platform is high, so quality photos are very important. A professional photographer will give you the desired result and will highlight your space better.

Finally, don’t forget that creating a beautiful and functional space is not enough. It also needs its proper cleanliness, the amenities that those who decide to stay at your place will need and its proper maintenance.
