Nest thermostat can save you a lot of money on your Airbnb property- especially in a desert area like Joshua Tree. NoiseAware and PartySquasher are some other great ones for busting parties or just help proactively keep the peace for your neighbors.
Just wondering if you guys are locking the outlets of your smart devices so that they aren't unplugged by tenants? I've been looking for a cover with a lock where I can cover the outlet because I've had tenants unplug my smart devices
Ring security cameras give your footage to cops without a warrant and 100% of your video and audio is saved on their end. Ring should be avoided at all costs if you value your rights (4th Amendment) and privacy. I suggest Arlo
Wow great tips great tips especially the one with the web WiFi?🤔 I think these are the things that’s making me wonder how can you do Airbnb remotely I have a friend who has one in New York and it seems like he will never walk away from it with all things considered but listening to this is showing that it’s very possible
Did you try out August locks? If so, pro's / con's vs. Schlage? Considering a switch from August. Smartbnb vs. hostfully for the PMS more so a cost decision or feature? Curious since you use their guidebooks.
We actually started with August Locks, but switched over because they were very glitchy for us. We had a few bad check-ins and looked for an alternative!
@@TheRealEstateRobinsons Ah! Makes sense. I am having quite a few glitches on the automation side. Been trying to work with them to fix it, but I hear you. 3 properties it's ok, 10 it's troublesome babysitting the automation haha. Thanks for the reply.
Many thanks for this great content - I think i didn't get though is how you send unique code through airbnb to your guests automatically, if you can clarify this point it would be appreciated !
Do you disclose in your listing about the security camera? Thank you so much for all your videos! I’m still learning and yet to own an Abnb yet but I’m jotting down all your tips ❤️
When you were talking about security cameras, I started typing "Do you put cameras inside?" and then you beat me to the punch. Glad I didn't hit send before I finished watching the video.😁 Good suggestion on the digital lockset. I put one on my own home a few months ago and it's already come in handy a couple of times. I needed to let the A/C repairman in once and a neighbor needed to borrow something another time. Just gave them a code and they were in. I can see how having them on your ABNB properties would be a huge plus.
😂 we actually found out after recording this video that Airbnb DOES allow for internal cameras in common areas, but it has to be disclosed in your listing
How do you deter guests from smoking INSIDE the house? I know I hate when I reserve a STR, and I smell smoke in the house, it's a turnoff. Especially for those guests that are not smokers. How do you handle that? Is it posted on your listing? "Non Smoking Rental" Guests will be charged an additional cleaning fee if smoke is detected?
I have started a property management business. Was thinking about adding my own lock on each unit for as long as I manage that unit. The issue is, I am 4 hours away from where I am managing. So, here's my question. I am thinking that I could sync my phone to the lock before installation. I would then send the lock to my maintenance man and have him install it. Would I be able to add him to the lock so that he can connect it to the wifi in the unit then after, take him off of as a user and still be connected to wifi? Am I overthinking this? Is there a better solution?
Great video and thanks for sharing! Can you talk about how you arrange car park or garage access to your guests? Are there any tech available or for recommendation?
Your guests will treat your property better if they know that they are under surveillance. Also great keyless entry to let people in and out such as trade people, cleaners etc.
Thanks for the great video! Are the guests responsible for signing out of their Netflix etc accounts on their TVs? Or do you somehow sign them out after they check out?
Great overview of useful tech to use with airbnbs. I came across you guys when I was researching Minut - the noise monitors (you don’t include these in your ‘tech stack’ but they are great for monitoring noise, temperature, humidity…). Now I’ve found you I will check out your videos, thanks. V useful info here - schlage - I’d never heard of. 👍😁
god the security camera take was so awful.. almost NO ONE wants a camera in a rental it feels violating and to assume that people that feel that way are just “bad people you don’t want to rent to anyways” is FCKING INSANE. typical landlord takes , pretty disgusting how shelter is so commodified specially to the likes of most of them being people like this lol
Please stop mispronouncing Schlage. Watch a commercial, or better yet, read the word. Schlage. Shhh-lay-g. Hard G at the end. Not sss-lay-zh. It helps us believe in you if you say words correctly.
@@TheRealEstateRobinsons just trying to make sure you are operating at 100%. Believe me, I appreciate the value you provide, and for the most part part you kill it. Besides, you ARE recommending a brand and product, you may as well pronounce it correctly? Keep up the good work, you two!
Closing in TN this month!!! Great info thank you!
Congratulations!! What a major accomplishment 🏆🏆
There's nothing more beautiful than seeing two young couples doing their things. Awesome job guys!
2?
Thank you for the great content. I'm using August for smart lock. So far so good

Yeah remote control for lights and aircon/heating go a long way to give your guests a super first impression - and saves cost

Awesome content guys!!! keep the great content coming it is really helpful for us getting in the business.
Just wondering if you guys are locking the outlets of your smart devices so that they aren't unplugged by tenants? I've been looking for a cover with a lock where I can cover the outlet because I've had tenants unplug my smart devices

How good of internet do you install in your locations? I know speed varies but do you get the basic, midline or higher end?

@@TheRealEstateRobinsons What software are you using to automate locks?
FYI, link to smartlock is broken
How can you find out if your city allows STRs.
thank you
I really like your video! I'm Anne, product promotion assistant. I would like to invite you to have a review about a mini projector.
❤❤❤
Cute couple. Need a woman like that.
Another great tool to use is a microphone! Your audio sucks.
They own nothing at all
They own nothing
Do you create a new guest code for each guest? I know that you can do this through Your Porter, but does SmartBnB have the same capability?
Very helpful! I love when people tell me: Here's the brand we use and why!
Can you share links for some of the digital guidebooks you've created?
Good but show the products and speak; rather sit there and make a video, would make it more informative.
We installed on our 1st airbnb:
Ring doorbell
August smart lock
Minut noise/crowd sensor
Nest thermostat
Wifi garage door opener
Many thanks for this great content - I think i didn't get though is how you send unique code through airbnb to your guests automatically, if you can clarify this point it would be appreciated !
Great video, but would of been even better if you posted the links to the keypad product you recommend!
How about a regular rental are security systems with cameras allowed. I’m getting mixed messages.
Do you disclose in your listing about the security camera? Thank you so much for all your videos! I’m still learning and yet to own an Abnb yet but I’m jotting down all your tips ❤️
Yes you have to. Or you can be permanently banned from Airbnb.
Can you make a video on things that will get you permanently banned from AirB&B ?
thank you. you guys look good and so cute for each others 💕💕💕💕💕💕
Can I buy a Mesh Wireless Routers in North America and bring it to us in my rental in the Caribbean?
Hey guys, what about wifi thermostats? Dont you use any?😊 thx
lol... scratches back of neck at 8:25, "old TV with the fat back"

Glad you like them!
Your intros and format has improved exponentially 😎
We love to hear that!! Thanks so much.
Very good tips and that was a great Meet up you hosted. Thank you

@@TheRealEstateRobinsons that's good to know! Will that change anything for you guys or will you keep them only external?
Personally I think the security cameras make the guestsfeel uncomfortable

Thanks for sharing. Any tips on average cost? Also, any coupons??
Im surpriced you didnt mention smoke/fire alarms that send alerts to your phone if activated.
You two are incredible! Please do a hostfully video tutorial!!
Great idea!! We’ll make a video about that soon.
@@TheRealEstateRobinsons I’m seriously impressed & motivated by you both 🙏🏿✊🏿
Do you have any streaming subscriptions at all? Or TV antenna?
What program do you use for your TH-cam channel videos
Thanks for the great video! Are the guests responsible for signing out of their Netflix etc accounts on their TVs? Or do you somehow sign them out after they check out?

What do you use for the automated messages in a previous video?
Do you guys used some smart home alarms? Like minut?
Did you ever make the video about guidebooks?
Thanks For Sharing, Great Insights…
You inspired me to get a Ring Camera for my glamping property. I'm getting a solar one. Thanks, Robinsons!

All of the value we provide on this channel and it’s hard to believe in us because of how pronounce Schlage? 🤔

Isaac Wilson you’re ridiculous
Sch leg is how I heard it pronounced. He only mispronounced it the first time...but, the other two times, is sounded correct to me.
Guys, save your revenue, the storm is coming
