Very slow - Please critique my listing

[Natalia1494]

After a very active year last two month I have no bookings at all. Can you please advice? May be something is not looking good on my listing?

La nouvelle année, Je n'ai pas de réservations, un conseil ne change pas trop tes tarifs en devalulant votre bien et attention à la tarification intelligente.

À utiliser à bon escient pour ne pas vous retrouver en perte vis à vis de vos frais.

Je suis là depuis 1 mois, classé coup de cœur des voyageurs avec 5/5.

Pas un expert, mais je me pose aussi beaucoup de questions.

New year, I don't have any reservations, some advice is not to change your prices too much by devaluing your property and pay attention to smart pricing.

Use wisely so as not to find yourself losing out on your costs.

I have been here for 1 month, rated travelers' favorite with 5/5.

Not an expert, but I also have a lot of questions.

Malheureusement il faut casser les prix, faut croire.

Je viens de louer mon appartement standing 100m2 pour 144 euros 7 personnes du 24 au 28 avril.

C'est navrant ! Mais bon tu fais avec.

Restez réactif !

@Natalia1494 Unfortunately we have to cut prices, we believe.

I have just rented my 100m2 luxury apartment for 144 euros for 7 people from April 24 to 28.

It’s heartbreaking! But hey you deal with it.

Stay responsive!

@Natalia1494 Your space is so cute and has great views. Here is my honest opinion and it's meant to just serve as a helpful guide.

I usually would not book something with owners on the property. It doesn't make me feel comfortable, even if there is a separate entrance unless I am specifically renting a room in someone's house. This to me feels more like a room share, than an entire place. Second, that bed doesn't look very comfortable. People are often traveling with their partner, and the bed seems very small from the pictures. 

Hope that helps.

Hi @Natalia1494 ,

You need to have some professional images taken of your property, and some drone shots would greatly benefit you too - images of the nearby river, wineries, city centre.

I've been a professional photographer since 1994 with 20 years' experience as a real estate agent in Florida, then Virginia.  I now reside in London and I'm still working as a property photographer and vetted Airbnb photographer here.

I found this company online after a quick search. Pricing is about right and imagery looks good as well.  Drone pricing is real good!  If this company isn't near you, just search for "real estate property photographers near me" or add your precise city and location instead of "near me."

Images that "pop" and stand out is everything in today's fast-paced market, and especially with the way today's generations shop online.  Click, click, click, done! 

Airbnb stats says you can command more money and receive higher paying clients with pro photos too.  

Best!
