Summary

This is an older episode of 'Get Paid For Your Pad' discussing how to set up multiple Airbnbs across the world, offering advice on property selection, specifically focusing on regulations, pricing, and ROI. The episode also touches on revenue management strategies and how to avoid the 'hectic host' stage. Hosts can gain valuable insights from the discussion on property investment criteria and revenue optimization.

Key Insights

  • New Airbnb regulations were impacting hosts in Amsterdam, leading to a host selling their apartment and seeking properties elsewhere.
  • The episode discusses conditions for a suitable pad, including price (no more than 150,000 Euros), friendly legal conditions, personal preferences, and ROI (10% is optimal, 7-8% is acceptable).
  • STR pricing is harder than hotel pricing due to product uniqueness, booking windows, and operational constraints.
