My area is in Subang and is a DST. I have only 1 unit.
Before I started, comments I received it is not KLCC area and who wants to stay 20 to 30 km from city.
When I listed it in Airbnb, within 1st week I received a four nights booking from a UK family ! Throughout the 4 years, other than locals, I have received bookings from China, Hongkong, Singapore and Germany.
Other than holiday guests, I also received bookings for 2 to 3 months from those owners doing their house or condo reno.
Local movie and advertisement production house also booked my place for filming.
Many who have no experience in this business thinks Airbnb is only about KLCC and foreign tourists.
You be surprised if I say few of my bookings came from neighbours.
Like in any business, there are some downsides relating to lousy guests that dont take care of the unit, stealing and unreasonable demands. It takes experience to handle all those.
The pricing will determine the type of guests who booked.... similar to 5* and 3* hotels.

But the thing is now Airbnb is dying in country. and it will prolong to at least another year before start picking up. as long as border not open, no need to talk about homestay.Before I started, comments I received it is not KLCC area and who wants to stay 20 to 30 km from city.
