As unbooked dates approach, Airbnb, Smart Pricing, and even some hosts suggest lowering your price to increase your chances of booking those unbooked days.
Thinking of a place like Maine, where most of the bookings happen in the summer, I've been scratching my head over this. You get messages or pop-ups that imply people have booked other places cheaper than yours. But wouldn't the available listings start to dwindle the closer you get? And wouldn't you therefore be entering a seller's market, not a buyer's market? So wouldn't it make sense to raise the prices as the unbooked dates get closer?
What are your thoughts on this?
