Take a look at the Keane-Rivera's 70s-themed guesthouse, which he designed himself and furnished by visiting "every single vintage shop in Seattle and Tacoma," he said. However, if he continues booking up his space consistently, his conservative calculation has him breaking even (plus recouping the cash flow he lost during the three months when he was remodeling the space) by the end of the summer, he said: "After that, it's all upside." "So I'm trying to just keep everything very conservative and provide the best product possible to see how the market reacts." "This is forecasting from algorithms that could be poor indicators of future returns," he emphasized. Getting verified as a "super host" could also drive his rate up, he added. Currently, the space is listed for $99 to $128 a night but, according to a third-party Airbnb pricing tool that he pays for, he could list it for $200 plus in July. He says it's too early to call it a successful investment but being fully booked up during a Seattle winter, which tends to be a slower season for vacation rentals, is a good sign.
