what is the market like? I looked at air bnb for my area and it seems there are a TON of people offering places to stay, most of which are whole furnished apartments

I'm a dude with a spare bedroom and an absentee landlord, and I was thinking about it, but not sure how I can compete with people renting out whole units

I live in a central part of a large city. Location is everything. If you live in a good location I would definitely look into renting your spare bedroom. If big city, your bedroom in your place should rent for like $75, 20-30 nights a month.

The whole unit will go for like $140+. Your market will be college kids, or cheapos. There will be a market there. You will make money, and be surprised how easily/fun it is.

i never met a lot of the people that stayed, but most were tourists or business travelers that stayed 2-3 nights. Some of the nicer places would routinely get week or two week long reservations and I would just chill and make $ for nothing.

i actually thought about moving into a two bedroom and renting out one bedroom permanently. I could live for free and meet interesting/hot people. Also, most guests only sleep at the place and generally leave gifts/food/alcohol.

I plan to work at my job and get promoted. But some days I dream about walking out and just renting apartments. The problem is it would only be profitable for another year or so. Then I would have no idea what to do. But I'd have 200k.

Bro u should stack cash then rent out other airBnB apartments for months on end. corner the market in a neighborhood then repost them for higher rates. Not like these giys will take you to court for violating airBnB "lease rules"

definitely thought of that. but there's a good chance I'd get caught renting it out and I'd have to live there. All the condos in my city have crazy HOA rules and also crazy HOA fees as well. HOA fee plus mortgage would basically be more than rent on an apartment would be.

Your right though, I should do this because I was throwing away the rent on a apartment when renting it out. Pretty tight on money though.

DC council members proposed some ridiculous rule that hasn't done much. It proposed to create a new department to enforce airbnb LOL!

How would you ever expect to enforce something like this? In DC, airbnb collects a 15% surcharge on every reservation and gives it to DC. Less than 1% of the housing is airbnb. Also, there are other competing sites that work too.
