Update Personal Information

When I started hosting, I did it in my personal name. Since then things have grown. The property I started hosting personally is now owned by my business, and I also host for my own home. How do I update my personal information - 2 listings are business and one is personal, but I am the host for all of them. (The business BnB payouts go into a separate bank account.) The "update" format doesnt allow me to do them separately.

Hi @Mark872 We have different dashboards around the world so I'm not sure if you have this page under "Account settings"

That is true, but the change is not for all of my listings - only for 2 of them. However, the update page does not permit me to distinguish between my listings - so if i make a change to the  listings that are now operated by my business, that will also change the information on my personal listing to look like my business listing, which would not be correct. The instructions on the update page say that the information cannot be changed once it is done, so if I change it to the business name, I wont be able to chnage the personal listing back to personal. 

So I dont know how to do the update to that it works out correctly.

@Mark872  The only practical option is remove your personal listing and start a new account to list that one personally. You could just list them all under the business and then the business would issue a tax form at the end of the year to you for the funds you personally recieved, but that makes it more complicated for the business and you to keep track of it.

Would I still have my suprehost status if I remove the listing and then start again? what about all the bookings I have for the future -will they be saved? 

@Mark872  You would be starting over. AirBnB could help transfer the bookings, you would have to earn Superhost again and start with no reviews on the new account.
