Monday’s Magic Tip: Highlight Unique Features Of Your Property! Want to make your property stand out from the crowd? Highlighting its unique features is the key! 🏡 Whether you're listing on Airbnb, VRBO, or any other platform, showcasing what makes your place special can attract more guests and increase your bookings. Here are some tips on how to do it: 1️⃣ Craft a Compelling Listing Description: Describe what sets your property apart in your listing description. Is it a cozy fireplace, a stunning view, or perhaps a charming garden? Use descriptive language to paint a vivid picture for potential guests. 2️⃣ Emphasize Amenities: Do you offer unique amenities like a hot tub, a game room, or a gourmet kitchen? Make sure to mention these in your listing and highlight them in your photos. 3️⃣ Capture it in Photos: They say a picture is worth a thousand words, so make sure your photos showcase the unique features of your property. Take close-up shots of interesting details and wide-angle shots to give guests a sense of the space. Remember, highlighting what makes your property unique not only helps it stand out but also attracts guests who are specifically looking for those features. So, put your property's best foot forward and watch those bookings roll in! 🎉 #MondaysMagicTip #MondayMotivation #UniqueFeatures #GuestExperience #Boise #Airbnb Tips #SmartHospitality #VacationRentalTips #Cohost

✨Monday’s Magic Tip: Create a local guide for your guests!🗺️ While there may be some guests who live nearby, or visit the area frequently, many of your guests might be visiting the area for the first time!🌍 They probably won’t know much about the town your rental is in, so providing them with a local guide can give them ideas of things to do while they stay at your vacation rental.🏡 Even if they know the area well, your local guide could give them some new ideas of activities or restaurants that they might not have heard of or tried before.🍽️🎉 Help your guests get to know the special area that they’re staying in!🤗 #MondaysMagicTip #MondayMotivation #LocalGuide #GuestExperience #Boise #Airbnb Tips #SmartHospitality #VacationRentalTips #Cohost

Wednesday: What’s in the News? A bill (HB 506) brought before the Idaho Legislature by Rep. Jordan Redman, R-Coeur d’Alene, was met with some opposition.  The legislation would block cities from placing any rules on short-term rentals that they don’t place on long term rentals.  Legislators have put the bill on hold and have asked the two sides to try and find a compromise. #AriticaloftheWeek #StayInformed #WednesdayWisdom #ShortTermRentals #Regulations #HB506 #BoiseDev #Boise https://lnkd.in/gqgfDBM6
