@Marit-Anne0 @Alice-and-Jeff0 ...Yes Marit Anne, that was my thought, take the new owner on as a ABB VERIFIED co-host.
One argument would say, that's fine while you still own the property, and lets face it, you do until settlement day! But once you hand over the property you have no interest in it any more which is Alice & Jeffs argument. But, as Airbnb's rules stand there is nothing preventing you from listing a property you don't own....tennants do it all the time...ABB don't care, they will list it!
Alice & Jeffs other statement though is quite correct. Although the property enters into it for obvious reasons the agreement is between a host and a guest.
And @Corky1 point is a good one....what if the property does not sell for 18 months? Do you put yourself in limbo for that entire time.
My knowledge is limited because, although I have spent 18 months regularly on this forum I have never run into any problems with my hosting so I have never had to test any of these issues. But my feeling is, if it were me and the new owner wishes to keep the listing going I would be inclined to get the new owner to verify themselves with ABB and co-host with you. This will give them some experience in how the system works and once you decide you don't want any involvement any more ABB can attend to the listing details being changed. This is something that can only be done directly with ABB, you cannot do it via your listing and it will involve a totally new ABB account, but the co-host as the new owner will be able to retain the listing as is viewed but they will not be able to retain your reviews.
Cheers.....Rob
