Guest Screening

The process of evaluating potential guests before accepting a booking to reduce the risk of property damage or rule violations.

Guest screening involves reviewing a potential guest's profile, booking history, reviews from previous hosts, and verification status before accepting a reservation. On Airbnb, hosts can require government ID verification and review guests' profiles and past reviews. Some property managers use third-party screening services like Autohost or Superhog for more thorough background checks. Effective guest screening reduces the risk of parties, property damage, and problematic stays.
