Airbnb quietly changed the rules, and if you’re not paying attention, you could be giving refunds you didn’t agree to.

In this episode, we break down exactly what changed and what to do about it.

Here’s what you’ll learn:

• Why Airbnb is auto-switching hosts to a “Firm” policy, without clear consent

• What happened to the original Strict policy (spoiler: it’s weaker now)

• The difference between “Strict,” “Firm,” and the new “Limited” cancellation options

• Real refund scenarios, who gets paid when guests cancel

• Why Mike is switching to “Limited” on all new listings

• How to check if your policy was changed (and how to fix it)

Don’t let Airbnb rewrite your house rules without you knowing.
