Turn your Lumina Homes into an Airbnb investment property

Do you have a primary residence and want to earn that extra cash flow through this passive generating income and use your home investment for it? Here are the procedures that you need to do to turn your brand new Lumina Homes into an Airbnb property:

Step 1. Invigorate your rental properties decor. 

Redecorating and furnishing your rental property beyond its fully-furnished condition is the best way to attract new tenants. Your lighting systems, plumbing and air conditioning must be in perfect shape but you also need to make sure your space is well-furnished so that your clients are enticed to spend time in your establishment.

You can also make your visitors feel like they're at home by adding additional personal touches. Adding a new coat of light-colored paint to your walls is another way to brighten up your home.

Step 2. Consider the Legal Requirements for your Airbnb rental property.

In the same way that any other business must get a registration license, you must also ensure that you are permitted to host in your own house. The following documentation, needed by the Department of Tourism for accreditation must be prepared before your investment properties can be accredited as an Airbnb host:

1. Accomplished Application Form
2. Accomplished Self-Assessment Form
3. Letter of intent to operate
4. Sworn Statement of Undertaking
5. Valid Mayor’s or Business Permit

Requirements

Prepare for local processes in addition to registering your business with the national government. Here are some of the requirements that you need to prepare:

- Barangay clearance

- Building, plumbing, and electrical permits

- Fire safety insurance certificate

- Mayor’s permit

- Occupancy permit

- Sanitary permit

Check the Community Rules

When renting your home, you must make sure that it complies with the community laws, construction requirements, and contracts you signed with Lumina Homes or the community council. Prior to hosting, you should check with your lender to see whether they'll allow you to do so.

Step 3. Have your profitable investment insured. 

Your side gig will bring in money, but you should also be prepared for the pitfalls of owning a vacation rental property. Your furniture and belongings may be damaged by visitors despite the house rules, and it is already a part of the housing market and being Airbnb hosts. As a result, you should prepare for it by purchasing house insurance now.

Step 4. Open an AirBnB account.

In order to use the online marketplace to host your Airbnb, you must first create an account and it is simple and completely free at airbnb.com. You may use your email address, phone number, Facebook or Google account, or Apple ID to join up for the service.

You'll be asked about your home's specifics, such as its location, kind, and the areas to which your visitors will have access. More precise details like how many guests you can accommodate, how many beds and bathrooms you have, and what facilities your visitors have access to are also required.

Step 5. Attract potential guests by uploading great photos. 

A prospective renter's eye is drawn to photographs in ad descriptions, according to seasoned Airbnb hosts. At least 10 high-quality images should be uploaded to your Airbnb listing, even though visitors may see up to a hundred photos. Landscape format is recommended and the recommended picture size is 1024 × 683 pixels. A professional photographer might be hired if you don't have enough time or equipment to do the photoshoot for your Airbnb rentals interior design.

Step 6. Use the listing description to describe the services you provide. 

Your prospective visitors will be drawn in by high-quality images, but a well-written description may persuade them to make a reservation. Before you begin creating your ad, make sure you know who you're trying to reach. For business travelers Airbnb guests, it's important to emphasize the amenities that allow them to work quietly and uninterrupted.

Step 7. Ease the check-in procedures for a profitable Airbnb short-term rental. 

You should double-check your listing to make sure your visitors know exactly how to check in after they've booked your space. Additionally, make sure to have time to communicate with them. You should communicate with your visitors before their arrival date and let them know whether you will be welcoming them in person or if they will have to check in on their own.
