[caption id="attachment_1341" align="alignright" width="281"] Indianapolis Real Estate Broker, Rachel Prince[/caption] More often then none, I get the call that a client wants to convert their property into an Airbnb home. I first have to ask them what their motives are. After all, Airbnb is not a passive income industry and relies heavily on quality & responsive customer service and hospitality. Many of these are landlords are renting out the rooms by the week or month. They usually own a slew of properties and some of the homes have even gone into disarray. The conversion process from landlord to short-term rental host can be quite tricky and not what one is accustomed to. So, if you are a seasoned investor looking to convert a few of your rental properties or deciding…

  [caption id="attachment_1343" align="alignright" width="300"] Indianapolis Real Estate Broker, Rachel Prince[/caption] Airbnb is a killer investment strategy for some of you out there. It can really beef up some of those under-performing real estate assets. Whether you are a seasoned investor looking to convert a few centrally located rental properties, or you own a 2nd home that may never see returns, Airbnb is a great solution for many.

Airbnb guests are a great excuse to go take a free vacay!!! Last week I booked some Airbnb guests at the Indy Zen Den and used the time to go visit some friends in Chicago. I hadn't been back to Chi-town in years! It's only a 3 hour drive from Indianapolis so I figured, why not?! Along the way, I just had to soak up a piece of history, so I stopped in Lafayette, IN where the original Purdue University-Hoosiers come from.  Cute houses and spring flowers lined the streets, along with the cutest main street and state capitol. I booked an incredible Airbnb apartment in the heart of Chicago's Gold Coast with some referral credit that I had from Airbnb. (learn what this is) I went restaurant hopping in the…

4 Ways Make Money on Someone Else's Airbnb Investment by Rachel Prince, Airbnb Real Estate Investing Educator There is a lid for every pot. Just like each investor, whether a private investor, a friend or family member, or a private money lender, will have specific requirements for how they want you to put their money to work and pay them back. Furthermore, its up to you to understand how to structure your deals so that you get what you want out of it too. I believe being able to articulate a clear vision for how well you can leverage an investors cash on their behalf, is one of the first steps to attracting in a strong investor pool.

Often times we never even notice what it is about a neighborhood that attracts us. Sometimes it's not just the home itself but more subtle things like your cool neighbors on the block, the views, or the yoga studio down the street. And often time we only recognize these things AFTER we move in. My favorite neighborhood, where I was the happiest and most successful in my home, was near a lake. I would drive by it every day or walk around it and simply take in the beautiful reflective water against the mountains. When I moved away, I started to miss that cute little lake. When buying or selling a home, consider being proactive about what factors will attract you to your next neighborhood. When we are happy and…
