Monthlong booking for our second Raleigh-Durham NC home!
We’re officially 100% booked for the next month for both our properties, using the VH formula! Now that I’ve had back-to-back wins, time to start increasing the prices, too. 🤑 The VH formula for me was was ridding myself of the nerves of setting the minimum booking to at least 14 nights and even 28 nights. The other key was changing from instant book to inquiry only on Airbnb. Oh, one more thing: shamelessly ripping off the titles and verbiage for my listings from y’all here in this AWESOME VH Community! 🥳 Sidebar note: Today’s booking wasn’t an insurance booking. She’s a Duke Hospital liver transplant patient. My first house was for somebody whose house flooded, and now somebody with a life-changing medical procedure. Wow, this is REALLY amazing to get to help in both kinds of ways!! 🥰
Finally, an emergency booking! 💦
I’m so happy to share with the community that I got my first 30-night emergency booking based on somebody being displaced! It feels so good to provide a five star experience to folks who have emergency situations!! “Hi Brian, we came home from our wedding anniversary trip to a flooded house so we need a place to stay while it’s being repaired.”

Praise Jesus! 🙏🏻 This is such a big deal for not just me, but I’m gonna teach my adult children how to do this, too. 🥰
Refrigerator magnets with your house rules on it
In our weekly call just now, @Jodi Rhoades said she puts a magnet on her refrigerator with house rules, carrd QR scan code, etc., and wondering if others do the same? Also, do you put your WiFi info on a tabletop stand on your kitchen table or somewhere else? Do you get these things through Amazon or another vendor? Thank you in advance for your responses!
Got two monthlong Airbnb inquiries today!
One inquiry was from a person who only had a 3.9 average rating so I asked her to give more details of why it was so low. No answer from her so my response was probably a turnoff which is OK, since I don’t want my house trashed! 😬 The second inquiry was from a person who wrote the following, and I would love to have the community’s perspective on how it would be best to respond to respond: —- Hello, I am looking to make a booking for a local family who had water damage in their home. The booking would be for 6 adults, 2 children and 3 dogs (2 small poodles- 20lbs each, Chihuahua mix- 20lbs). They do have a caged bird( small cockatiel) as well. Our company itel, was hired by their insurance company to make their booking. We use Airbnb for work which allows our account to pay but requires her verified account to place the booking under. Are you available for the above dates? —— Anybody heard of “itel” before? You think this is legit, or a scam? If it is a legit inquiry, how would you respond?
