Short Term Rental Market Trends
How to make the most out of the slow season
Although the off-season may bring slower lead times for bookings, it is also the perfect time to optimze and enhance your properties. Our Airbnb account manager recently shared valuable market insights on potential opportunities to enhance your listing, focusing on data concerning the amenities that guests are searching for when they go to book a short term rental.
Airbnb data shows that certain amenties can signficantly increase bookings, as they often become that deciding factor for many guests. Certain amenities give your property a competitive edge in a market with increasing supply.
The slow season offers an ideal opportunity to work on your property with less disruption to guests stays. The work done in this time will prepare your property to become the ideal listing for the busy peak season we see from May to September.
We are committed to maintaining all existing amenities in your properties and are excited to assist with adding new ones as needed.
Air conditioning, a dedicated workspace, and pack and plays are just a few of the most sought-after amenities by guests.
- Air conditioning: A good cooling system is an added plus to hot SoCal summers that tourists often look for.
- Dedicated Workspace: As staycations become more popular, guests are looking for dedicated workspaces to get work done while enjoying a beach getaway.
- Pack and plays/portable cribs: These items have been one of the more popular amenities guests have been asking about! Having one available is a big plus for traveling families!
Let’s discuss how we can take your home to the next level! Reach out and let us know what you’d like to enhance — we can make it happen!
