Practical guidance to get your listing online and your first contract signed. First 1,000 listings get Pro free for 1–3 years.
Listing checklist
- Accurate nightly rate + cleaning fee. No surprises at booking.
- Clear house rules, occupancy caps, and pet policy.
- 10–100 high-quality photos depending on your tier.
- iCal sync set up with Airbnb/Vrbo before you publish.
Contract template tips
- Include check-in/out times, quiet hours, and trash-day policy.
- Define payment schedule + security deposit terms explicitly.
- State cancellation windows in calendar-day math, not "business days."
- Collect legal name, phone, and driver's license state before signing if your property requires it.
Operations
- Coordinate cleanings as soon as a booking is signed.
- Prepare a local guide (emergency contacts, wifi, trash) for guests.
- Document property condition with timestamped photos before each stay.
- Keep a backup contact for guests who lose keys or lock out after hours.
