Why It Matters
Relisting keeps properties visible to guests, ensures Hostaway and Airbnb stay synced, avoids duplicate listings, and makes sure pricing and details are accurate.
Steps
Steps
Step 1 – Prepare Property Information
Confirm property sheet is updated with correct details.
Update photos (avoid using exact duplicates from previous listing if possible—swap order, add watermarks, or upload fresh images).
Create a slightly new title and description to prevent duplicate detection.
Step 2 – Create New Listing on Airbnb
Log in to the Admin Airbnb account.
Go to Listings → + Create New Listing.
Enter property details: type, location, rooms, beds, baths.
Upload updated/temporary photos.
Add a unique title and description (avoid copy-pasting old one word-for-word).
Add amenities and house rules from the property sheet.
Set calendar availability but keep it unlisted initially.
Step 3 – Finalize Listing Details
Update check-in instructions, parking info, and custom fields in Hostaway.
Ensure pricing rules and seasonal adjustments are correct.
Double-check cancellation policy, cleaning fees, and minimum stays.
Key Info to Avoid Getting Flagged by Airbnb
✅ Use slightly different listing titles and descriptions than before.
✅ Upload fresh or rearranged photos (don’t re-use exact duplicates).
✅ Do not copy-paste from another active listing—each one should look unique.
✅ Keep the internal property name unique (e.g., add a code or nickname).
✅ Ensure pricing and availability are updated before going live.
✅ Always unlist until sync + setup is finalized to avoid “double listing” alerts.
