I sure now that the day I've found the BNB Formula was my lucky day! It helped me and guided me all the way until I could welcome my first guest in my vacation rental house.
For me as a person living in the USA only for for years, and still learning the English language, always the video course is the best way to learn.
This BNB Formula online course was exceptionally well done, I could understand everything right away. The lessons are very detailed about every issue what one can face during the first weeks. They follow each other in a the proper sequence. This way if someone doesn't have the time to watch it all at once like I did, still can start working on his Airbnb business step by step.
The supporting written materials, like e.g. checklist, they are also a tremendous help. I personally followed the guidelines very carefully and tried to do everything as it was advised by Brian. Where I didn't for some reason, I was always sorry later because either I spent to much money or spent more time than needed on that issue. I signed up with all the recommended partners, like Vivint for SmartHome system and did not regret it. I bought all the supplies where I was introduced to during the course.
This was the only way to proceed fast enough to be able to list in less than 8 weeks from knowing absolutely nothing about this vacation rental business.
Originally I was going to flip this investment property of my LLC. It was a fairly good deal and just in a couple of months I could have made nice profit on it. But after I read about the vacation rental opportunity, which seems to be a good business to try in Colorado Springs, I've started to look around for online courses. There are a few out there and I checked quite a few of them. But this was far the best in my opinion, and now I'm convinced about it. My investment property was still under remodeling inside and outside when I got access to the course. I started to watch the videos and found it interesting enough to watch the whole online course in 4 days. I made notes about it and the 5th day I started to work out my individual plan to be able to list as soon as I can. It was a very hard time for me, because flipping a house or prepare to list it on Airbnb, a little different story.
But yes, I could list the property in less than 6 weeks because I just had to follow the guidelines. After the second day of listing on Airbnb, I got the first booking. I even got lucky because it was booked for 5 weeks right away to start with. Now I'm looking forward to go after other people's property and set up the first vacation house which I don't own. I'm sure, that's where the real power of this course is and will show me, how to make money from other people's property. Thank you for your work! - Zoltan
