Why Airbnb Hosts in the Florida Keys Should Have a Notary Contact (and How it Helps You Get 5-Star Reviews)

If you manage an Airbnb in the Florida Keys, you're probably focused on cleaning and making your guests happy and entertained but here's a curveball: what happens if they need a notary?

Real Scenarios That Happen All the Time:

- Boat or car sales at the last minute: A guest buys a boat or car while in town and has to sign paperwork before they leave.

- Impounded vehicle emergencies: Someone's car is towed, and they need a vehicle release authorization - quick!

- Travel affidavits for minors: Families forget these before traveling. No passport? No problem if you've got a notary contact.

- Permit forms for your Airbnb: Hosts renewing licenses or handling short-term rental documents often need onsite notarization.

Why Hosts Can Win Bigger: Adding a Local Notary card to your welcome book or guide:

1. Positions you as a go-to host who really thinks of everything.

2. Saves guests the time, worry, and cost of finding one on their own.

3. Makes customers say: Wow, that host had my back. And THAT often ends in a 5-star review.

BONUS: I offer permit notarization for Airbnb hosts too - helping you stay compliant with local rules.

You don't need a notary... until you do. Be the host who already has it covered!
