Description

Do you know exactly what items are in each of your Airbnb listings? Do you know where the breaker box is located? Or the make and model of the washing machine? The more detailed information you have, the easier it is for you (or your team) to help a guest when they call with questions. But what’s the best way to manage inventory in your STR units?

Darik Eaton is the Founder and CEO of Seattle Oasis Vacation Rentals, a short-term rental management company out of Seattle, Washington. Darik got his start as a host in 2008, and he was one of the first to list on Airbnb when the platform expanded to the Seattle market in 2010. He currently operates 40 properties in downtown Seattle and manages his team remotely from his home in Kauai.

On this episode of Get Paid for Your Pad, Darik joins me to share the process he uses to manage inventory in his STR units. He explains how his detailed system of documentation makes it easier for his team to provide customer support and improves the guest experience. Listen in for Darik’s insight on standardizing your Wi-Fi network names and passwords and learn how to build your own process for taking inventory of your STR listings!
