In this video, we discuss some of the key differences, pros, and cons of hosting your spare space on Airbnb vs. co-hosting (ie managing other people’s properties on Airbnb) vs. investing in short-term rental properties and actually buying Airbnbs with the goal of generating a return on your investment.
Hosting on Airbnb can be a great way to earn additional income, cover your costs, and have a lot of fun while meeting new people from around the world. It’s how I first got started on Airbnb and with the low barrier to entry, it’s a great starting point.
Co-hosting/property management on the other hand, is a much more scalable way to earn a full-time income from Airbnb. By managing other people’s properties, you can avoid the upfront investments that come with buying your own property. Co-hosting can also be a much better option than rental arbitrage due to the minimal upfront investment and risk. Although you won’t be building equity and leveraging appreciation with co-hosting, it’s a really great way to generate additional cash flow and income that you can use to replace your regular 9-5 job or just earn a little extra income on the side. There’s also virtually no risk with this strategy, because you’re managing properties for a percentage of the overall revenue.
Lastly, investing in short-term rental properties is an incredible way to build semi-passive to passive cash flow while also building long-term wealth through equity and appreciation. Real estate investing is arguably the most tried and true, time tested method for generating long-term wealth. When you combine all of the benefits of traditional real estate investing with the massive advantages of Airbnb, it can be a match made in heaven! Airbnb offers real estate investors significantly more cash flow than traditional long-term rental properties. Not to mention, you also get greater control over your property, generally much less wear and tear, no risk of needing to deal with evictions or non-payment, and the ability to use the property yourself as a lifestyle asset whenever you want!
Although purchasing short-term rental properties requires an initial investment (for things like a down payment, closing costs, furnishing, etc.) it’s the strategy that offers you the greatest level of control and the highest overall returns. If you’re just starting out and want to opt for a strategy with less risk and little to no upfront investment, then co-hosting is likely the perfect choice! And if you’ve just got some empty space that you want to start hosting on Airbnb to generate supplemental income, then Airbnb hosting is the way to go!
