Getting your property live on Airbnb is not the hard part.

Getting it live and performing from day one is.

Here’s what needs to happen before your first guest checks in.

Compliance First

Before anything else, confirm:

•body corporate by-laws permit short-stay letting

•smoke alarms are installed on every level and working

•pool fencing meets current Queensland standards if applicable

•short-stay insurance is in place

Do not list until all four are confirmed.

Presentation

Short-stay guests compare your property against hotels. The bar is higher than long-term rental.

At minimum your property needs:

•quality linen — white, hotel-style

•sufficient towels for maximum guest capacity

•fully equipped kitchen — appliances, cookware, utensils

•welcome consumables — coffee, tea, basic condiments

•toiletries — shampoo, conditioner, body wash, hand soap

•clear TV and appliance instructions

Photography

Book professional photography before you list.

Do not launch with phone photos.

Your photography is your first impression with every prospective guest.

Access

Decide how guests will access your property before launch.

Your property manager should have a clear access protocol that works for every booking type.

The Right Order

•confirm compliance

•complete presentation and fit-out

•book professional photography

•set up access solution

•create listing and configure pricing

•go live

A delayed launch beats a poor start every time.
