Hosting a property is a big deal. You, hosts, must know that it takes time and effort: from creating the listing, communicating with guests, cleaning the property, purchasing supplies, and the list goes on. That’s why I believe that anything that could “help a little” is very welcomed.
I’ve compiled a list of the five devices every host should have on their rental property. These items could make your hosting life easier by allowing you some control over the property and, without violating any policies, keep an eye on things. Let’s dive in:
1. Smart Locks
No more lost or copied physical keys. Provide guests temporary access with a time-controlled code, specifically for each guest’s check-in and check-out. Our choices:
2. Video Doorbell
Monitor who’s in and out of your property with a video doorbell. This device is perfect for controlling extra guests, as well as furry friends if you have a no-pet policy. Our choices:
3. Smart Thermostat
A smart thermostat allows you to control the rental’s air conditioning from your phone. You can adjust it before the guests arrive or after they leave. Guests can easily adjust to make themselves comfortable. Our choices:
4. Smart Speakers
Speakers may not be of super help for you, but they’re a great addition to the guest’s experience. Let Alexa answer some of their questions like “what’s the best coffee shop around?” or “what’s the Wi-Fi password?”. Our suggestion:
5. Multiple chargers
A USB charger is a convenient and thoughtful detail for your guests. By experience, in way too many trips I’ve left my charger so having one could ease a lot of stress! Our suggestion:
Happy hosting!
