How do I find a co-host in my area?

I'm a host and am in need of support with cleaning, restocking, and managing my rental.

 

According to Airbnb's website, Airbnb offers a directory for co-hosts who want to support hosts https://www.airbnb.com/co-hosting/start, but don't have their own space. Where do I find this directory?

 

Does anyone have recommendations on where I can find someone to co-host and manage my property? Any feedback would be appreciated.

 

Thank you! 😃

If you need a co-host, Airbnb's answer that 'Hey! Ask a friend or neighbour to help!' is not terribly useful..........but you can register your interest on the site, and the registered co-hosts in your area can then see your listing and get in touch is

Hi,  I've been trying to find a co-host or an Abnb super host who could review my listings. This person can be located anywhere but definately needs to have the experience to make my current super hosted listings even better.   Wayne

I see now such option on my listing.. where do you see that, which left tool bar, please?

Helena is exactly correct.  By following her instructions, I was able to invite someone who I know will host the way I do and present my listing to the guests in a way that will reflect my personality.  Thank you, Helena!

AirBnB is not going to help you find someone to co-host. What AirBnB will do is after you have identified someone that you would like to help you with hosting, AirBnB will allow them to set up an account and access everything in the host section of your AirBnB listings except for your financial information. So they'll be able to answer inquiries, approve guests, see your calendar to arrange arrivals, departures and cleaning. Co-hosts even have the ability to set prices.

 

If you would like someone to help you host, you'll need to recruit, screen and contract with them yourself. First, you'd have to decide what you want the co-host to do. If you want them to act as your surrogate so you never have to interact with guests or the unit, you probably will want a real estate agent who specializes in vacation rentals. If you just want someone to handle the physical aspects of hosting such as cleaning, meeting guests and maintenance, you might be able to use a housekeeper or handyman to do those things. But you'd still be responsible for setting prices, answering guest inquiries and approving requests.

 

Dear Scott;

 

The fortune.com article "Here’s How Airbnb Is Expanding Its Co-Hosting Program", dated Nov 2015 states: "There are two ways for hosts to add a co-host: by inviting a specific person they already know (such as a trusted friend or neighbor), or by searching for nearby qualified hosts who opt into serving as a co-host."

 

I am a superhost interested in opting into serving as a co-host, but I can't find info on how to do this. Was the article incorrect or has airbnb dropped this option?

 

Any assistance would be appreciated! 🙂

omg the link was in the first poster's message! LOL.
