Keeping it REAL on this week’s episode that went LIVE last night on our YouTube channel and giving you an peek at what we’ve been up to in LA since moving back & beginning the process of remodeling our new home. 🔗is in our stories + bio per usual🎥✨ WE’RE STRUGGLING With Airbnb Bookings + Renovating Our New House in LA Airbnb bookings are DOWN all around. Is it inflation? Is it the new Airbnb website or just the slow season? In this week’s episode, we’re sharing what we’re noticing as we enter into the fall and winter months and how we’re combatting slow bookings on our short-term rental. We’re also beginning to renovate our new house in Los Angeles and finding our Airbnb needs some extra attention now that we’re away. Not one, but 3 issues arise this week alone! Self-managing our Airbnb is proving difficult but with the right help, we’re getting the hang of it. New to our channel? Hi! We’re Kristen and Michael, a couple DIY renovating their dream desert home into a short-term rental business. In December 2020, we decided to leave Los Angeles (our home of 7 years) to pursue our dream of owning land in California and creating a sanctuary to share with family, friends, and others worldwide! We purchased our house in the high desert during the summer of 2021 and have since DIY-renovated the entire thing and created our business from the ground up. #airbnb #airbnbhosts #airbnbexperience #airbnbtips #diyhomeprojects #diyhomedecor #diycouple #investmentproperty #joshuatree #joshuatreenationalpark #joshuatreeairbnb
