Why Hosting 30 Guests at Once Can Be Easier Than Hosting 2 with Andrew Llewellyn

On this week’s episode, Avery is joined by Andrew Llewellyn to unpack how he built a thriving short-term rental business in Louisville, KY. He shares the pivot from an almost-bakery to 10–30 guest stays, the data-driven playbook behind tiered calendar openings and last-minute pricing using throughput accounting, and why in-house cleaning and EOS/Traction keep operations tight. Andrew walks through converting an 18,000-sq-ft office into eight 4-bed/2-bath units (projected $800–$900k gross) after a first 10,000-sq-ft building that now grosses ~ $400k, plus the realities of SBA 504 financing (six–eight months and 40 bank conversations). Tech stack highlights include Guesty, PriceLabs (with manual event overrides), RemoteLock, and a heavy weekly metrics cadence.    How to connect with Andrew:  https://superstaysstr.com/https://andrewllewellyn.com/@iamandrewllewellyn How to connect with Avery: The Short Term Shop - https://theshorttermshop.com/ www.strquestions.com Follow Avery Carl on Instagram Follow Avery Carl on TikTok Join the Short Term Shop Facebook group Check out the Short Term Shop on YouTube   For more information on how to get into short term rentals, read Avery’s books: Smarter Short Term Rentals - Buy it on Amazon Short-Term Rental, Long-Term Wealth: Your Guide to Analyzing, Buying, and Managing Vacation Properties – Buy it on Amazon
