Rental arbitrage vs Cohosting ðŸ¤
Summary
The video explains the difference between rental arbitrage and co-hosting in the context of short-term rentals. Rental arbitrage involves renting a property and listing it on Airbnb with the landlord's approval, requiring the host to cover rent, utilities, and take on the risk of renting and managing the property. Co-hosting, on the other hand, involves managing properties for others who rent or own them, and earning a percentage of the revenue for services. The presenter chose rental arbitrage due to its accessibility and potential for higher revenue and profit compared to co-hosting.
