Hosts use Hospitable to answer 90% of guest messages with AI-powered automated messaging, to automate their team notifications so they never miss a clean, and to avoid double bookings with a synchronized calendar across booking channels.

Pricing starts at US$29/month, and all hosts get a 14-day free trial. There are no onboarding fees, no contracts, and no commitments. 

Hospitable allows hosts to build their own direct booking website with guest vetting, $5M damage protection, and payment processing built-in. Hospitable also connects with popular 3rd party booking channels Airbnb, Vrbo, Booking.com, Agoda, and Google Vacation Rentals.

Understanding taxes is one thing. Managing them consistently throughout the year is another.

In this final session (3/3), we’ll focus on how US-based short-term rental hosts can approach reporting and compliance as an ongoing process, and how different hosting setups influence what’s required.

We’ll cover:

*   How tax and reporting responsibilities differ across Hospitable plans, including Direct Basic and Direct Premium
*   What it means for Hospitable to be the merchant of record, and how that affects tax handling
*   What hosts can generally expect from tax reporting, including concepts like 1099-Ks and annual earnings summaries
*   How Hospitable supports reporting and record keeping, including integrations with tools like QuickBooks Online
*   Considerations for hosts operating as owners, arbitrage operators, or property managers

This session brings the series together by connecting earlier concepts with day-to-day workflows and reporting practices.

Additional materials and follow-up resources will be shared with Hospitable customers in the [Community](https://community.hospitable.com/).
