To maximize the odds of receiving a booking request property owner's need to put in a bit of effort. Travelers are simply spoilt-for-choice because of the vast and unending supply of holidays homes in front of them. There are several factors you can work upon to stay ahead of the competition.
1. Display the maximum number of images that you can.
2. Make sure that the images are the most recent ones.
3. If possible, try to change the images to reflect the different seasons. This not only helps you get good business in the main holidays season but also keeps you in good stead for the off-season where you can attempt to showcase the fall or winter season to your advantage.
4. Take some time out to write a brief description about your property. We believe that you can best describe the qualities and attractions of your house and this will surely provide potential renters an insight about your property.
5. Regularly update your availability calendar and rates to reflect the most recent status. Not updating the calendar regularly is the most common mistake property owners commit.
6. Provide accurate location details along with local attractions so we can reflect that accordingly on our maps.
7. When travelers visit your property and have a good time, encourage them to write a review about it. A vote-of-confidence from a fellow traveler can be the clinching factor for someone looking to book a rental.
