The deal-breakers
First of all: is letting permitted by the town hall and by the co-ownership rules? Is the EPC compatible with the regulations? If the answer to either is no, there is no point going further.
Location
In Bordeaux, being close to the tram, the historic districts, Saint-Jean station or the quays counts for a great deal. On the Bassin, it is proximity to the beach and the shops. Around Libourne and Saint-Émilion, access to the vineyards and parking.
Layout and amenities
The right property depends on the clientele you are targeting: business travellers, couples, families. A comfortable bed, reliable internet, a fully equipped kitchen and self check-in have become basic expectations.
The test to run
Search Airbnb for properties comparable to yours in your neighbourhood and look at their calendars, their prices and their reviews. It is the best indicator of your property's real potential.
