First time hosting

First time hosting

Since this will be my first time hosting, I would like to ask what guarantees, documents, or precautions I should have in place to ensure safety and a smooth experience for my first hosting.

There are no guarantees when it comes to an STR business @Abanoub4 

 

you need to check with your local government to see if there are any STR restrictions.

 

You need home insurance for STR . Aircover is limited .

 

asking vetting questions helps you filter out guests who aren't a good fit for your listing. 

You would need to check any local business regulations you need to comply with.

Hi @Abanoub4

 

Welcome to the community, and congratulations on taking your first steps as a host!

 

Have you already welcomed your first guest, or received your first booking? Perhaps in addition to Helen's advice, you might find the following 👉 Guide for new hosts useful. 🙂

 

Have a lovely day, 

 

Emilie
