The Questions That I’ve Asked Eric

NOTE: these were not the only questions of the interview, but the questions that started the conversation.

  1. What’s your story and why have you decided to go on your own path and become an entrepreneur?
  2. Would you say that your drive to create this great life for yourself was it because of the background of your family? Because you didn’t want to live that life?
  3. Can you remember some of the biggest fear that you had?
  4. About Koda Homes, what is it and how did you moved into Airbnb?
  5. Where exactly do you have properties?
  6. Why not San Francisco?
  7. Is it possible to make a living from Airbnb? If yes, how? And also, can you scale it up one million and beyond, not just live month by month?
  8. In San Diego, how many days, on average, can you rent in a month?
  9. How can one with no real estate experience get started with Airbnb?
  10. Any thoughts on Airbnb in Europe?
  11. If you just have a house and you want to travel for 2 months or for 2 weeks, can you rent that house with Airbnb for just the 2 weeks?
  12. What would you say is the future of housing market from a millennial stand-point?
  13. What are other sought after locations in the U.S., from Airbnb stand-point?
  14. Do you feel like Airbnb would work in locations like the Bahamas or Caribbeans?
  15. How important would you say was investing in your mind, in your success?
