I'M BRANDON

I make documentary-style videos showing you the raw, unpredictable world of short-term rentals that most people never see.

No staged tutorials or generic top-10 lists—just authentic stories from real hosts, guests, and the business of Airbnb.

I share the experience, you witness the reality.

Follow along in this complete Airbnb makeover vlog as we unpack ceiling-high boxes, build all furniture from scratch, paint custom murals, and design every detail to create a competitive Airbnb property in Scottsdale's luxury market.

What happens when you take your Airbnb guests on an unexpected adventure? In this episode, I surprise three friends from Kentucky staying at my Alice in Wonderland themed Airbnb with a trip to Roxborough State Park - one of Colorado's most stunning hidden gems that even locals don't know about! These three moms traveled from Kentucky for their annual "Spiritual Reset" trip, expecting a typical vacation rental stay. Instead, I decided to show them the real Colorado by taking them to a secret hiking spot just 40 minutes from Denver that will absolutely blow your mind.

In this unexpected encounter at my Alice in Wonderland-themed Airbnb, I discovered how my guest Ashley built a $75,000 eBay business selling vintage toys while staying home with her children. Ashley reveals: • How she transitioned from working with special needs children to eBay reselling • Her strategy for sourcing vintage toys and collectibles at auctions and garage sales • How she identifies profitable 90s nostalgia items • Her pricing strategy (20% below competitors) that increases sales volume • Customer service techniques including handwritten notes • How she manages this $75K business working just 20 hours weekly This is the first episode of my new series "Behind the BNB" where I explore the fascinating stories of Airbnb guests and hosts.
