Survey Shows Guest Injury is a Top Concern for Airbnb Hosts
A recent survey conducted in tandem by Lodgify and UK insurer, Scofield’s, asked short-term rental owners what concerns them the most about their renters. The #1 answer? Guests injuring themselves, with over half selecting that as their main concern. Next came property damage, weighing in with 44% of respondents citing this concern. Theft rounded out the top three.
Hosts are right to consider the risks associated with short-term renting and take steps to ensure their guests are safe. The good news? All of these top issues can be covered by commercial short-term rental insurance. See the full results of the survey, which also gives examples of expensive claims (in British pounds, but you’ll get the idea).
