Boost your income by renting out a spare room—or transitioning a second home to a short-term rental—with HomeAway’s VRBO. This detailed course will help new hosts succeed on VRBO, the rental site with more than 1 million listings worldwide.
Christopher Matthew Spencer, a successful VRBO host, first acquaints viewers with VRBO and the requirements—both in terms of mindset and property—needed to venture into the VRBO world. Then you’ll learn how to prep a property, stock it with amenities that will garner 5-star reviews, and craft an attention-getting listing that covers everything from the listing headline to property descriptions and guides. The course also explores how to manage guest interactions, deal with housekeeping and maintenance, and promote listings outside of VRBO.
