I am new to hosting and have a potential guest with a failed verification. The recommendation is to host the guest but the review does state 15 accounts. Should I be worried? Can i enforce a security deposit? I can’t afford any downtime in guest turn around as it is peak season and have back to back bookings. What’s the best way to hand a guest in this situation? Appreciate any suggestions or tips. TIA

We have a large historic place that has STRs, as well as weddings, etc. I need help juggling the calendars and automating the processes as much as possible. Ideas?
I signed up for the basic plan with INtellihost and considering putting a property with them to manage my rates. Wanted to check here first to see who is using them?
I’m looking to set up my direct booking site exclusively for mid-term rentals (30-day minimum stays), while keeping my Airbnb calendar settings at a 3-night minimum.The last time I tried to configure this, the 30-day minimum setting on the direct site also applied to my Airbnb listings through calendar sync. Can you confirm if there’s a way to separate these settings so that: • The direct booking site enforces a 30-day minimum stay, and • My Airbnb calendar remains at a 3-night minimum?I’d like to use the direct site for corporate housing and longer stays while continuing to host short stays on Airbnb.Thanks in advance for your guidance on how to make this work.

Hello to anyone using VRBO!This is my first booking for VRBO and I need to manually invoice the owner for my 25% Co-Host commission rate. I do not need to do this for AirBnB, because I am already set-up as a Co-Host on that platform to received my 25% commission rate plus the cleaning fee.Is anyone able to help me mirror AirBnB’s fee split for VRBO, so I can explain to the owner how I got to the 25% commission for this VRBO booking? I know AirBnB deducts the Host Service Fee (3%) and the Cleaning Fee, prior to the split and they do this off of the Host’s Payout (not what the Guest paid), and AirBnB does leave in the pet fee, for the Owner and Co-Host to split, but luckily no pet fee here.I guess my last questions other than calculating the 25% Co-Host percentage + Cleaning Fee, is if there is any way for this invoice split to happen automatically?
How do I get the AI to stop referring to the property as a condominium? Every time it makes a reply for a public response to a review for Airbnb it refers to the property as a condominium. I would prefer it use the property name or bungalow. I have made several notes in the knowledge hub but maybe I have done it wrong because it never changes. I am also unable to edit it myself and have it publish with my corrections.
