Kenny identifies the biggest trap for short-term rental hosts: not tracking future earnings and pacing. Kenny explains how hosts often get caught up in the high season's success and fail to prepare for the fall and shoulder seasons. He discusses how understanding key KPI metrics and being proactive, rather than reactionary, can help hosts maintain profitability. Kenny emphasizes the importance of data analytics, including understanding past trends, adjusting pricing strategies, and leveraging amenities in changing seasons. The episode also teases a future discussion with a professional co-host managing over 30 properties, who will share strategies for handling seasonality in highly seasonal markets.
