Bookings in the area

Hi there.  I have listed a home in Palm Harbor on Lake Tarpon.  I am shocked that I haven't gotten any bookings.  My home in TN books every other week.  Wasn't sure what the market was doing down there and wanted to see what others in the area thought.

@Missy98 I suggest retaking pictures of your rental in landscape mode so that prospective guests get to see each room in its entirety. It’s difficult to envision what the guest is getting. 

Thanks @Breanna for tagging me.

Welcome to the Community Center @Missy98!

 

You might find that requesting a Listing Critique from the community might help to optimize your listing. You can find how to do that here >> https://community.withairbnb.com/t5/Ask-about-your-listing/How-to-ask-for-listing-critique-on-the-Co...

As you also mentioned wanting some market insights, I'll also tag in some of the CC's most experienced hosts who may have some recommendations for where you could research those-- @Mike-And-Jane0 • @Gwen386

What research did you do around supply and demand and seasonal variations before setting up your STR business @Missy98 

 

lots of areas suffering from falling demand and oversaturated markets .
