Delisted by Airbnb/VRBO? Future-Proof Your Business

The Biggest Threat to Your Vacation Rental Business & How to Solve It

It’s a thought that keeps many hosts up at night: Would your vacation rental business be over if Airbnb or VRBO delisted you?

For many, the answer is a terrifying yes. They’ve poured countless hours and dollars into building their business, but it's all built on land they don't own. A single negative review, a sudden policy change, or a minor dispute could lead to a permanent delisting, and with it, the end of their entire business. This is the ultimate risk of relying solely on third-party platforms.

But what if you didn't have to live with that threat?

The Path to True Independence

The solution is simple in theory but often intimidating in practice: build your own brand and your own direct booking website. When you go direct, you’re not just creating a fallback plan; you’re building a foundation for a more profitable and secure business.

• Gain a New Stream of Guests. Relying on just one or two platforms is a significant risk. With a direct booking website, you can attract new guests by building a presence on social media, using email marketing, and optimizing your site for search engines. This helps you diversify and build a sustainable business.
• Avoid Commissions and Keep More of Your Revenue. Have you ever calculated exactly how much money you lose in booking fees every year? It adds up to thousands of dollars that could be going directly into your pocket. A direct booking website allows you to earn 100% of your revenue from every booking.
• Take Back Control. On a third-party platform, you have to play by their rules. When you go direct, you get to set your own policies for cancellations, payments, and guests. You can also vet potential guests to ensure they’re a perfect fit for your property, giving you peace of mind.
