How to handle future remodel

[Lissette72]

I’m remodeling one of the bedrooms in my listing, and I’ve already informed future guests who may be affected by the change.

I updated the wording on the listing to reflect this, but I’m not sure of the best way to handle the photos. I tried uploading the current room photo with a small overlay explaining that the room will be remodeled in September, but Airbnb flagged the photo because of the overlay.

I’ve already added the information in the listing description, but should I leave the current room photo up even though it won’t accurately represent the room after September 1? How have other hosts handled this?

Hi @Lissette72 👋

You've already updated the description and let affected guests know, which should help set expectations, do you think anything further would need to be done @Kate2192 @Jon5060 @Beverley120 

Have you got any plans or inspiration for the new room @Lissette72? It would be lovely to see the finished result once it's complete.
