Haggling Airbnb for accommodation… (alien.top)

I’m looking into setting off as a digital nomad next year but have been deterred by the saturated information on acquiring accommodation via the relevant parties in each country.

Has anyone had success negotiating for month long (or more) stays for Airbnb’s?

I prefer the simplicity (all bills included etc) as well as the low risk compared to getting caught up with deposits, contracts and potential scams.

I booked a month once for around 900. Ended up staying a lot longer. He offered that I could just pay thru Venmo and ended up only charging 700 for the rest of my time there. He has multiple properties so I just txt him when I come home to visit. Once you build a little trust it’s easy to cut out the middle man.
