Airbnb-Friendly Apartments — What Multifamily Owners Need to Know with Jesse Stein

Airbnb-Friendly Apartments — What Multifamily Owners Need to Know with Jesse Stein

Author: Mark & Tamiel Kenney June 2, 2023 Duration: 27:26

Airbnb just launched a program that lets your residents legally host on Airbnb — with your permission, a revenue share back to you, and free marketing from Airbnb. But what does that actually mean for multifamily owners and syndicators?

In this episode, Jesse Stein, Airbnb's Global Head of Real Estate, walks through exactly how the Airbnb-friendly apartments program works — and Mark Kenney asks the ownership-level questions most hosts won't think to ask.

In this episode you will learn:

• How the Airbnb-friendly apartments program works — hosting limits, revenue splits, and what building owners actually receive

• Which landlords have already signed on — and how smaller syndicators can get involved

• How access, cleaning, and on-site operations actually work in practice

• What residents are earning on average — and the built-in income calculator that's driving leasing velocity

• The lending and loan doc questions every owner needs to answer before opting in

• How Airbnb's AirCover works for hosts and building partners — and what's still an open question

This is a program that didn't exist 12 months ago and is already live in 40+ markets. Worth understanding before your competition does.
