The Clouse Corner: The Downsides of Owning an Air B&B

Published: Dec. 21, 2020, 7:02 p.m.

This week it's part two of our two part series about the pros and cons of owning and operating an Air B&B, last week was the pros so this week we regretably will be sharing some bad news to you hopefuls. On the bright side it's the holidays so brew up some coacoa snuggle in and enjoy some bad news in a way that's really only possible but once a year!

\n

Last week we spent a lot of time playing up the positives, additional income, a place for inlaws to stay over the holidays, a good use of extra space etc. But this week we are really getting to the heart of why everyone might not want to own and operate an Air B&B even if you have the resources to do so. Much like any side hustle with the potential for good return the downsides fall in line with the usual list that comes from running your own business: The demands on your time will be great, all the customer service will fall on you, and you have to devote yourself to a certain level of care and attention to detial even if you're exhausted. However, if all of that sounds doable to you maybe you're ready to start on the adventure of running your own Air B&B!
