Starting my own Airbnb has been on my radar to starting up another source of income. So far I'm up to 7 sources, and real estate has been the next one to cross off. Thanks for sharing! Great content!
There were actually 7 steps. He missed step 5. 1. Plan your business. 2. Create a legal entity (LLC) 3. Register for taxes (EIN) 4. Create a bank account 5. Get short term rental permits / Licensing 6. Get Business Insurance 7. Create an action plan, execute.
Hey Kin 👋 I’m thinking about making a video on this. Let me know if that’d be helpful. P.S. If you have any other questions about starting & growing your Airbnb business lmk.
With all due respect to the author of this video but he’s not saying anything about actual Airbnb business. He’s talking about steps how to open your legal entity and business checking account, insurance, permits and etc. All of that is useful of course, for those people who never ran their own business before but I was kinda waiting to hear the details about how Airbnb is set up and how to actually run it. Thank you
Re watching all your videos.. as much as I'm telling myself not to start short term rentals because I'm afraid... especially during these times. I don't want to hold off and wait because I may regret it. Just going to dive in and do it.

Thank you - I just wrote down the steps...but realize there was no step 5. This was a good start for me as I am getting started with AirBnB but in a different state.
great content- especially the insurance information. reducing recurring fixed costs so important in any business; consider credit union for reduced banking costs.
Thank you for your good tips. My opinion is don't tell people to set their own LLC. That is illegal advice. If you are an attorney you can give such advice. Else ask them to use the state bar referral service to find a less expensive attorney who will help you do that. You won’t know if your legal document will hold water until you have to test them. Then you will wish you had done them right. Believe me.
first time i ever seen a video with (currently) 15 views and 17 likes. But thanks a lot for the information you provide. I really appreciate your contributions.
Im 19 from Norway and VERY interested and motivated to getting started with tentamen arbitrage. Unfortunately this is not allowed in Norway for more then 60 days a year….

Just typed in “How to own and run an Airbnb” and saw your video first thing. Then you said you’re from Springfield MO, which is my hometown!! Represent! Lol Also this is super helpful thank you!
Her method Surprises me. When I saw testimonies all over the place I thought it was made up stories till I was convinced and gave it a try and honestly I don't regret the move I made because I invested in a big way
She is a scam. She robbed my money. I have all the proofs. These type of comments should not be encouraged You are also taking part in stealing people’s money. This comment was a disaster for me and took my money away.
I would recommend to use accountant to make Llc… even Llc sounded like the same to all people either 500$ or $50…but the way of setting up Llc will save you tax at the end of the year. It will cost you a lot more to fix it… I was there before $26 k tax paid for a wrong Llc set up and then save more than 10$k after fix next year plus 2k to fix it.. still LLC
Hi, how long did it take you to get your permit and liscencing? I've looked all over for this information and you are the only who touched on the subject.

Hey man, I’ve been binge watching your channel for the past hour; good stuff 👍. This is definitely a wave that nobody knows about yet. I just finished Tai Lopez’s HSMC program, and I’m getting started. My question for you: Did you have to borrow money to fund your first property? If so, how did you do it? I don’t have the funds to rent a place +furnishings/cleaning/etc. I’m going to pitch this business plan to a local real estate investment group this Monday. Do you have any advice on that?
Thanks for the watchtime! You’re absolutely right it’s still early! I didn’t have to borrow money, I came out of pocket for the listing, my investment paid for itself three times over within a few months. I would go to that investment group with a solid action plan for what you want to get out of it. Are you looking for a 50/50 partner? Or a silent investor? Make that very clear to whoever may be interested. If you can’t make it work there then the next thing would be working until you have the money to start. You need money to successfully start with this business model.
Most banks offer a business account for free if you keep $1000 in the account. If you dip below $1000 or whatever their amount is, then you get a charge. Ask at least 3 banks what they offer.
Awesome! Thanks!,.. will look into your course,... and thanks for motivating me to get started... have been thinking about it for weeks now... i subscribed 😉👍
5:23 Doesn't mean they know what they are talking about. Government officials are some of the least, poorly trained, people working at any job. Call a government office and ask 5 people the same question, you may get 5 different answers.
Have you ever had to pay for rent because there was vacancy in one of your properties ? im nervous that my property wont generate enough money to pay the months rent .
@@kelisboutte1186 oh ok. I was going to ask how you were getting on. No worries. I'm very interested. Hoping to be up and ready by the beginning of April.

Amazing Introduction to Airbnb business . Looks like there is a lot of legal stuff and paperwork . But it’s understandable. What state or city would be the best to start?

He is deliberately making a simple Airbnb business sound complicated. Check with your city to make sure the city has no prohibition against short term rentals...then LIST your property.

Love Springfield! Went to grad school at AGTS. I miss Andys’ frozen custard! Great video. Thanks. Just looking at turning our second home into an Airbnb when we are not using it.
I wanna ask one question, a real one ! I am an Airbnb host and I am living in Toronto. One of the guest who booked my place for quarantine stopped by Montreal airport border officers and given 2 option , Quarantine in Quebec province or deport. I was his only contact in the Country and he asked my help. I did. I trusted a guy whom I never met before and made a booking $600 for his 14 day quarantine stay in Montreal. This is his 2nd day of stay. I received a message from Airbnb and it says they are not supporting this reservation anymore and cancelled, without giving a reason. I am at home , you are at home , our families at home , Where are you Brian ? where is Airbnb ? Are you busy with making another dramatic video that saying how you care about others health ?
Concerning Step 5, I saw your response to two other viewers indicating you "skipped" step 5. So, just for clarification... is there a step 5 that you skipped or should this just be a 7 step plan. Not trying to nit-pick... just want to make sure I don't miss an important point. Especially like your "take action, get started now" approach.
You’re awesome Bro!!! Me and my wife love your videos and we are going to go for the challenge!!! I work in the music/audio industry and I’d also be down to connect and help you improve the audio quality of your videos!
Hi robert, I have a question about for a beginner and someone who still needs to work full time do you suggest that you should outsource the cleaning crew, and a manager for your first airbnb listing? Or should I try and do it all myself until I can get more listings going?
So when creating a LLC company, does it need to be just for Airbnb or anyLLC company would work. Let’s say I have a “Construction, LLC” the one I use to do construction. Can I use the same company?
I downloaded the Airbnb app. I looked at prices for rentals in both Harrisburg PA which is my current location, and also in Pinellas County Florida. I'm seeing prices in the range of 30 - 60 bucks a night. I'm not really understanding how that could be very profitable unless you owned or rented at least a dozen properties. It seems to me that it's a good way to make a few extra dollars for a person who already owns their own home, or is renting. I'm totally open to any feedback on this opinion. I'm seriously interested in this.
I made a video talking about the various markets. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-h_qmm0eYnYU.html Price depends on what it being rented, single bedrooms can go for $30, entire places in my area run $70-$100+ a night.
It can be profitable it just depends on your expenses but I’ll give you a little cheat sheet that works for me if you are say renting out a four bedroom house don’t rent it as the whole house rented as individual rooms so say you’re getting 40 bucks a night that’s $160 a night right there I will see you adjusted based off the prices of your market here in Buffalo I get like $45 on average and I make at least 13,000 a month my highest month so far has been 17,000 with my propertiesAnd that will only go up as they expand and get more homes

hey i live in Kansas City! I am thinking about doing Airbnb with my house, I was originally going to go the traditional route with Long term rental but i’ve been hearing a lot of good things about airbnb. I am a little nervous and I don’t know if it will be worth it or not idk 🤷🏼♀️ Here is my question: Do you think airbnb is worth it if your house is in a bad location? (like the ghetto) please be honest⭐️🌟💫🙏🏻

Thank you for the video, it was great! I have a question,... I have a business and it is incorporated can I use that instead of in LLC? Is it the same thing?
You’re welcome! The only thing I would suggest is creating a separate entity for this venture. I don’t see any issue with using a C-Corp for the lease.
Hi there, I am also in Springfield, MO. I’m seeing on the STR application form that a “neighborhood meeting” is required. Can you please talk about your experience with that process?

You can look into obtaining a DBA to run your airbnb business under your existing LLC. But if your current LLC doesn't relate to an airbnb business at all, then yes get another LLC. Hope this helps! :)

Started here with your video and it was very hepful. I want to start an air bnb. I want to rent out a nice camper that I have that is not being used. Can you rent campers out?
good ole Springfield. i played ball down in weak Bolivar. used to drive up to springfield a lot lolhow is the market down there i thought about gettin property down there because its cheap.
Thank you. But I think you are talking about in the USA mostly right? I am intending to do short rental Airbnb in Langkawi Island Malaysia. Can I ask is any of your listing a monthly rental property? Meaning you rent from other people then turned it to Airbnb business. Could you make a video about that if you have. I am not a Malaysian resident. I am from Singapore. And I want to do short rental Airbnb business in Langkawi because the rent is cheap. And because of the strong currency of Singapore compare to Malaysia. All I need is S$3,500 to have a Capital of Rm10,000 plus to start my business in Langkawi. My wish is to know..if you have a property that you rent out at Airbnb that you don't owned, what kind of problem I should looked out for. What should I tell the owner? I know I will be responsible for the property...but what about of natural disasters like Monsoon, Flooding? How do I ask the owner to be responsible for that? Thank you. Hope you are making a video of this. I understand making a business bank account is good for me. Because in case you want to sell your business and move to bigger property, you can show the profit you have make with that property.

Hi! I have a question about how to manage airbnb account if we have more places. I will be super glad if you can give me some tips. I will have second hostel and both are on Airbnb. So for me will be easier to have another phone number to know immediately from which place clients are calling. But also I'm primary host in my account, so btw always people will contact with my main phone number which I'm using in the first hostel. Because also I receive many massages on whatsaap and always I have to check who is writing. If I will have another phone with another number and Co- host I think will be easier. What do you think bout it? Regards
AirBnB also says it will receive complaints about unruly clients but that is a lie. They don't care. We need to change the law and prosecute them for destroying neighborhoods across America with noise pollution and toxic lung damaging vapors from leaf blowers going on for hours at a time several times a week, not to mention that even the EPA recommends decibel noise not exceed 75 decibels, above which hearing loss occurs and that is permanent. AirBnB is ruthless, callous and doesn't even have the decency to promote low noise electric leaf blowers. They truly are a scourge on America. They more they destroy neighborhoods the more there will be pushback and banning them and their noise leaf blowers ruining people's lives and destroying property values. It gets much, much worse. AirBNB destroys nice neighborhoods, and local property values, with constant (1 hr long jet engine noise) noise from leaf blowers that AirBNB requires by virtue of the fact that pictures have to represent reality, so you have horrible noise pollution by AirBNB owners who hire people to abuse the neighborhood with very loud leaf blowers that supercede EPA recommendations of 85 decibels for preventing hearing damage and sound like jet engines. I have seen Air BNBs have 1 hour leaf blower sessions 16 days out of the month. The is a company that is literally destroying the fabric of the community. Many communities are so sick of it that they are banning leaf blowers or implementing safe hearing decibel ranges of 60-70 decibels. It causes a lot of emotional distress, too when people can't hear themselves think. Very disturbing and abusive behavior caused by AirBNB.
How do I get in touch with you personally? I'm not sure my state is a good state to do this in maybe you can help? Can I do it in other states virtually?
