How does MiniStays work for hosts and how do I list my property?

Listing your property on MiniStays is easy and free! Just follow these steps:

1. Visit the MiniStays website. Create a host account, if you haven’t already done so. Among other things, you’ll need to verify your phone number, email, and upload some form of identification. You will also need to create or connect a Stripe account to enable payouts.

2. Go to your dashboard and click on “Listings” in the left hand column. Then click “Add Listing” in the top right hand corner. Enter information, description, photos, pricing, availability, amenities etc. until completed. Be as detailed as possible here as it helps guests know what to expect during their stay at your property.

Tips:

  • The MiniStays team highly recommends professional photography as it’s proven that will help you book faster, attract better guests, and earn more money.
  • Take some time to think through each cancellation policy option in conjunction with your security deposit policy. Make sure to inform the guests what to expect in terms of cancellations, damage to property, and how/when the deposit is expected to be returned.

3. When you’re done filling out the required info, click publish listing. Congrats! You’ve successfully listed your first property on MiniStays!
