0:00So I'm an Airbnb host and a lot of you've been asking me how I run it without hiring a management company.

0:04So here's everything I do as a host that makes it so easy.

0:07First things first, automated quick replies.

0:09Right when someone books my property, they immediately get a message thanking them and telling them that they're going to get another message as check-in gets closer.

0:15I've also scheduled this to send messages for pre-check in, check-in and check out instructions.

0:20Next.

0:21Next big thing is how I keep track of my calendar because I don't want to have to text my cleaner every single time someone checks out.

0:25So, I use the Airbnb app to add her as a co-host, so she has full access to my calendar and knows when the place needs to be cleaned.

0:31Now, one of my favorite things in the Airbnb app is a rival guide.

0:34This basically allows you to create your own little brochure of everything that's in the area of your Airbnb, like sightseeing, food, which saves you a lot of time because all the information they need is right there in the app.

0:44Since Airbnb offers all these tools, hosting really can be easy and hassle-free.

0:48And honestly, thanks to Airbnb support, I can manage everything smoothly and still have time to enjoy my life.

0:53Hosting an Airbnb really doesn't have to be hard.

0:55It's all about utilizing the right tools and just enjoying the journey.

A medium-shot frames a young man with dark, curly hair and a neatly trimmed mustache and beard. He is looking directly into the camera, smiling and talking. He is wearing a dark brown, collared shirt. Visible on his chest is a prominent tattoo of a rose. His neck also has tattoos visible. The background is a bright, modern indoor setting, likely a living room or open-plan area. Behind him, there's a light-colored wall, a wooden cabinet, a doorway reflecting a faint figure, and framed artwork on the far wall. The lighting is soft and even, suggesting natural light from a window or well-diffused indoor lighting.
