GUEST BIO

David Krauss has been in the real estate space since 2012 and started flipping houses and condos in Boston and realised the potential of putting them on airbnb early on. Everything was going great until some people threw a massive party on his property and got a letter from the City which triggered him to go out and co-found the company NoiseAware. And just over a year or so he again found Rent Responsibly.

NOTABLE QUOTES (KEY LESSONS):

Ford model T analogy - This was when cars were not seen as a great way of transportation before and up until 20 years later is when they started making laws on how cars operate on roads since roads were made for horses and buggies at the time. Then David Krauss explained how airbnb will soon become like what happened to the Ford model T in this generation.
