Hello Priscilla and welcome here to the CC.
Lack of verified identity is an issue but not one that I would turn into a flat spin over. I have hosted a lot of 'newbies' and unverified guests here and most all of them have turned out to be very fine guests who I would welcome back again......We all had to start out from somewhere Prascilla.
I would look much more closely at the wording of the booking request! How has this guest come to you? Has he had lots of questions? is his approach to you passive, or aggresive!
When someone sees my listing, likes what they see, just wants to pull out the credit card and pay, and puts in a comment like...."We have seen your lovely listing and can't wait to spend a few days there"...brilliant, I can't accept fast enough, I know they will be good guests!
When they want to know if there is free Wifi, can I bring my uncles second cousin, is there offstreet parking, what cooking can I do?....Nah, Prascilla, they are not for me, and I decline the offer to host them. You can be sure they won't get any better as time goes along, and with every question, they strengthen their ground..... and weaken yours.
Not everone who is starting out is a bad guest.....but, I have never come across a fine 'Haggler' though Prascilla!
Cheers......Rob
