That's it! You finally jumped the step and decided to start you in the Airbnb adventure. However, if tourist rental on the platform was a health trip 4 or 5 years ago, a lot of water went under the bridges and a lot of things changed. Don’t expect to publish your ad anymore and that reservations fall on their own! Before create your ad on Airbnb take note of these 7 tips.
#1. Study the market in advance
Posting its announcement Airbnb is a rather delicate gesture that requires on the one hand that you have learned the wheels and mechanisms of this platform, but also that you know what to expect. In fact, if you propose an advertisement too beautiful to be true or not at all attractive, you will have made the steps for its seasonal rental for nothing. And invested money for nothing.
We therefore recommend that you study the market. Try as a visitor to search for ads that come close to the good that you intend to rent soon. To learn more about tourist rental thanks to those who have been there for years. In addition, a market study helps to establish a rental policy. So the result is undoubtedly a high filling rate and especially more cash at the end of the chain.
The market study also helps you assign the just price your accommodation . Too expensive it makes potential tenants run away. Less expensive it doubts the quality of the housing.
#2. Senior or secondary residence?
Seasonal rental on Airbnb is now well supervised in France. In fact, it is your main or secondary residence, you must now respect some very strict rules regarding the periods during which the accommodation can be rented. For example, a principal residence may not be rented more than 120 days per year, since legally inhabited at least 8 months during the year in order to enjoy the principal residence permit.
For secondary residence, it can be rented without any limitation of the number of days in the year. You will have to report the lease of your property on Airbnb to the city hall in the cities of more than 200,000 inhabitants. As a result, administrative costs may apply.
#3. The sublocation is delicate
Are you renting an apartment, a bedroom or a studio and you would like to offer it on Airbnb during your holiday? No problem. It’s legal, it’s your right. However, two key data frame it sublocation of real estate on Airbnb .
The first is the sub-location authorization. In fact, you will need to request permission from your owner before proposing the space that you rent on the Airbnb platform.
Secondly, you will not be able to make a profit by subleting accommodation on Airbnb. To make it simple, the amount generated by your rented accommodation must legally not exceed the amount of your rent. In short, you can potentially repay during your absence your accommodation, but not enrich yourself by doing so.
#4. Rental in Paris? Watch out!
Airbnb rental in Paris became highly radioactive. Indeed it is a course of the fighter who requires not only to obtain authorization from the authorities, but also to compensate for the surface of the rented accommodation on Airbnb by a proposed main rental location. This is in the spirit of stabilizing rental rates in the French capital.

In addition, a professional photographer will be required to make the best possible photos highlighting your rental property.
#7. Don't expect to harvest millions right away
If you start in the furnished tourist rental on Airbnb hoping to become a millionaire on the first day, simply pass your way. Indeed, the slightest profit from a rental activity on Airbnb comes first of all from a long-term job.
