Summary

Zeona McIntyre went from a $12 an hour retail job while side-hustling by renting out her place on Airbnb to owning her own Airbnb property to now having an entire vacation property management company that she runs while still traveling around the world. This is part two of this series and we get into the nitty-gritty of what works and what doesn't! We discuss the different platforms (positives & negatives), mistakes in listings, pricing, standing out in the crowd, dealing with non-positive reviews, and so much more. This episode is a must listen if you have ever played around with the idea of getting into the short-term vacation rental game.
