I agree with everything you are saying. I have been a host for a couple of years now and I have dealt with everything you mentioned. I was so attached to the first car. now I have a few of them and am unattached. They are money makers and that is all. Aside from maintenance, I am not interested.
Thanks for the info! I found out that if you can prove the bad review was based off of being petty for cleaning and refueling fees, you can get the review removed. Especially when all the other messages were kind and there was no issues prior to the charge at the end.
Hello Thomas, welcome to the Turo community, there are always lots of things to learn, learning myself new things on some trips. Let me know if you got any video suggestions about questions or concerns you have or had before to help others out.
@@fernando_h_001 Hi Fernando If you purchase a car for 40k and you finance it for 3 years. Your Turo business was able to cover mortgage and generate extra cash. then sold it for 25k after 3 years Do you have to to pay taxes on the 25K? Your videos are great. It will be great if you can make a video to detail one example of when you purchase a car for turo business and then when you sell it, what is the list of profits and tax deductions and how much you pay tax when you sell the car. Thank you Looking forward to your reply
For the cleaning fee, I warn them in my description to please return the car clean, or a cleaning fee would be applied! It's mainly for the inside of the car. The outside would get dirty regardless.
I was kinda thinking to be a Turo host, but now I don't feel like doing it lol Even though I purchase a car for my business, I don't have time and patience to deal with somebody's dumb and non-responsible behavior.. Thank you for your video, it was helpful.
Hello Jeongwoo, thanks for watching my video. It is a time consuming task and sometimes can be a bit stressfull, but in my experience, it is worth it. Gives you alot of stories to share with people.
Fernando!! Thank you so much for your detailed explanations on how to start. Your videos and other host have served me as a great start. I have my first trip booked within 2 hours after posting my car and a 10 days reservation. Could you help me out with a lovely template and the follow on templates that I can use? I also bought the ozone machine; you are the first person I heard to recommend having one. Again Thank you.
@@fernando_h_001 thank you for your assistance. I also follow your advice and contacted Verizon connect to add the gps to my vehicles in addition to the one in the vehicle.

Airport drop off instructions I hope your trip and landing to Vegas was a pleasurable one. I have left the car at Terminal 1 short term parking. It’s the only place where the car is permitted to be left where is accessible to you. The key will be inside the Car located in Level 2M of the short term parking lot in terminal 1. If you are landing in terminal 3 you must take a shuttle to terminal 1 (they are free and easy to use). Once you are in front of the car please call me or text me and I will verify your identity by either sending me a selfie with your drivers license and the car in the background or video call so you can show me your drivers license. I’ll remotely unlock the car and you can now enjoy your stay in Vegas. Also i left the parking pass next to the key, (they are located in the center console storage.) you will need to use that to exit depending on your time it should be a fee of $3-$6. Please also No smoking, there is a standard $150 smoking cleanup fee and it is cigarettes it will be $300 that will be charged on card on file. Let’s try to leave this car smelling good for other guests. If you want to use the tesla app, send me an email and i’ll add you as a driver.

Hey Fernando, I was wondering if instead of taking pictures of the car before renting it out if instead you could simply take one video documenting the state of the car which to me would seem easier than saving 50 or so pictures to my phone.
So I'm glad you asked this, I once asked a Turo rep, and they said video is just as effective as images. For some reason I'm just more used to the pictures but videos work well too!
Good afternoon. Can you please share pre written messages for the guest please ? Any recommendations for what kind of locks ? Thank you. Wonderful information
Hello Ashok, for sure no problem here is the text template, My recommendation for licks would be something in Amazon perhaps no more than $100 should do, but you want to make sure it is big enough for your key to fit. If you are using fobs, make sure you use a fob transmitter bag, to prevent guests or strangers to be able to open the car.

Great tips! I too want to Turo out my Model3. Which tracker did you end up getting? Also what deductible did you end up choosing. I was hesitant to rent it out like you but I figured if I can keep cost low of monthly payments it’ll be worth it. I hardly drive it since I work from home. Additionally, what’s the process of taking it to the air port?
Hello thanks for watchign Cesar, here are the answer to your questions: 1. I ended up using apple airtags. Apple Airtag amzn.to/3HaWZ9V 2. I ended up using the 75 plan and then eventually moved to the 80 plan once i was more comfortable. 3. I think it will pay off itself easily. Just be willing to list price competitively. 4. I got a video where I can walk you though. ruclips.net/video/rBeeBqYxb0c/видео.html Thanks for watching!>
Great video thanks but I hit a couple of questions you might have an answer for it: How many days a month you successfully booked your car on Turo? How many days you had with the lowest month and how many days you had with your highest month? Do you have any tips on how to rent a car on Turo fully remotely in a different state that I live in? It’s going to be difficult to have pre trip photo; deliver the car or collect the car or even park and clean the car?! But I believe its worth the adventure?
Thanks for watching and reaching out, below are my answers: 1. I would calculate about 80% ocupancy so 20-25 days per month. 2. There were months where I was fully booked every day and there was one month I was booked only some days because the vehilce was left in california and could not rent it out, and so that was a very bad experience. I've left link to that video below. 3. You would need a cleaning crew who can wash clean and drive the car to drop off spaces when needed and a Virtual assistant or yourself to communicate with customer. I know people that do this, and it seems to work for them. ruclips.net/video/3lt1Sm4FLI8/видео.html

Hello Joshua thanks for reaching out, I don't have data myself but I know there are a few companies that offer that. I'll try to get the names of them and share it.
First of all I would to say thank you to your video and more power. Just a have few questions regarding insurance what can you say or advise about personal insurance, commercial and turo ( 60%, 75%, 80%, 85% & 90%). Thanks in advance.
Hello Norber, thank you for watching and commenting, So in regards to selecting the right insurance i've made a video you should watch, but I would not reccomend commercial insurance unless you really want to split the risk liability or have over 10 cars. ruclips.net/video/UlvYJtP5cBU/видео.html
Hi. I'm thinking of putting my Tesla M3 on Turo. I have a few questions, if you have time. 1. Is the Tesla app just as good at tracking the car as an extra gps tracker? 2. Do you have to lend the renter you key card? Could you not just set them up temporarily on your Tesla account and put keyless driving on? Sorry if these are silly questions!
Hello thanks for watching, please find the answer to your questions below: 1. Yes tesla app is really good, you really odn't need another tracker. 2. I normally would give them the key but would offer the option to add them as a driver since most people would leave the car unlocked because they don't know how to lock it, Using the app is much safer for the car in my experience. 3. No silly questions in my channel all great questions! Hope this helped. ! Thanks for watching.

It really depends some people will put it on the door handle, I liked to put min under the car I found a place where it wouldnt' affect when I drove, and woudln't be very visible.
Super helpful vid. I’m starting as a host this week! Would definitely like those pre written texts if you don’t mind. Also, what would you recommend for key pick up of a car that’s not automated like the Tesla? How would you go about getting a lock box with the car key inside and get it safely to the customer without being present? Is there a way?
Hello Arion, thanks for watching please find the text templates below: www.fernandoherrera.org/post/pre-written-text-messages-you-need-for-turo. Now in terms of the key specifically for a tesla, I would always give them the card key, and unlock the car remotely. Some I would even share the car access via the tesla app. Try to make it as convenient as possible for the guest.
@@fernando_h_001 Thanks this is very helpful! Do you recommend any specific tracker and kill switch options? That’s the last thing I need before I get on the road!
Hello Thanks for watching Kay, please find the templates attached: There are more resources for turo hosts on my home page too. www.fernandoherrera.org/post/pre-written-text-messages-you-need-for-turo
Hey Fernando!!! Do you recommend any type of seat covers? If so, is leather preferred. Also floor mats are they worth the investment!? Thanks so much for the great info! I actually just put my first car on the other day and in my area there are only two cars listed within a 20 mile radius. How cool is that. I feel like we're on the ground floor.
Hello Samantha, thanks for watching and commenting. I would prefer leather, however if you can't have that then seat covers should be fine, there is also a product they sell that you can spray on your seats and its like a ceramic coat on seats that prevent leaks and stains to get on your seats easily. I'm really excited for you being one of the few Turo hosts in your area, really hope it goes well for you!
What does the lock box keep keys locked in it and guest open it. Also turo require guest id or you’re going to need to ask guess for ID when rent your car out
Hello Leatrice, thanks for watching. Please find the link with the templates below: www.fernandoherrera.org/post/pre-written-text-messages-you-need-for-turo
Hello Ione, I hope you found a good tracker, to answer your question i Do pay like $30 for Verizon connect however i'll be changing soon to Apple Airtags. I made a video here... ruclips.net/video/8O74H8XlYZA/видео.html

Well you do make a profit if you play it right, I made several money while I was a turo host, and was able to sell my car for a profit at the end. But I do understand that if not done right you can be in a very bad spot.

I never had the OBDII port tracker I always had a hardwired tracker which made it very complicated to remove. But i have hear some guests will remove the tracker if in the OBDII port.
I have a trip that’s booked today at 8 PM but they want me to deliver the car at 9 PM. Am I okay with just doing that or how can I modify the trip to be at 9 PM instead of 8? Just don’t want to have the check in process messed up since it’s an hour later than when they initially booked it!
Hello, I apologize for the late reply, Turo normally gives you and the guest a 1 hour cushion, normally turo is quite flexible on this, really it depends on you willing to accept those terms. Let me know how it went!
Hello Jacee, currently I have not sold any one of my vehicles. They are still making money for me in the platform, so i'm happy. But once I do sell them I'll be sure to make a video about it.
nothing really removes cigarette smell. It's disgusting. Is there something in place where the renter can be charged for returning the car with a smoke smell?
Thanks for watching, much appreciated. I agree I really really disliked when guests smoked cigarrets the smell always comes back. It was until after like 10 ozone machine runs that I was able to remvoe the smell.
Hello Virgo, thanks for watching, hope the turo host journey is going well. I think front a rear camaras are great specially to have if any accident occurs. However Turo does a great job covering you in the case you have pre and post trip pictures even if ou don't have a rear-front camara. But I personally think they are worth the investment.

The problem with the lockbox is that the car will start the engine anyway. the person does not need to know the code to start the vehicle. very dangerous advice. But the rest is great! Keep going!
Hello Lukasz, thanks for commenting, this is something I agree I should've pointed out on the video, there are bags, that block the Fob from allowing the keyless transmitter to work. However you have to be mindfull since the guest will be placing the car back and you have to trust they will leave everything correctly.
Hi great video, very helpful. Just curious, if you are using AirTag to track your car, did you have any problem with guests ? Is it have privacy issues? Because if you put into your car, if someone use a iPhone, they will be notified there is airtag close by.

Hi Fernando thank you for the info. What do you do with the car's registration because mine has my name and address on it. I'd prefer my renters not having access to this information.
Hello Faatoese, Thanks for watching so normally I leave my registration in the car since I believe it is required by law to do so. However i’ve seen some hosts put a copy of the registration and blur the address, or simply not include it. If they need it then they can call you. Hope this helps you.
Hey man, loved this video. I was thinking on buy the model 3 and renting it out on Turo just to make the monthly payment. Do you think it’s worth doing that or just keep it for personal use?
Hello thank you for watching, I di think buying a model 3 is worth purchasing and listing it on turo, however, keep in mind the increasing prices going on right now, and the how long a model 3 may take for you to take delivery of. I would not recommend buying a used tesla, however, you can still make it work, I've just seen that used teslas are frequently more expensive than new ones (Right now).
Don’t do it, I bought 3 Teslas and 1 Porsche. Too much work and too many scratches on my wheels. People leave the car open on daily bases. Eat inside my car despite I’m telling them. It to. Lots of time my 4 cars is on the street not making any money.
Thanks for watching everyone, a kind way to help the channel is by "Liking the Button" 😂 and subscribing!
After listing to you, I think I am going to provide a small amount of cleaning wipes and small garbage bags for renters when I start my Turo business.
That would be a great way to show the guest you care that extra mile!
I agree with everything you are saying. I have been a host for a couple of years now and I have dealt with everything you mentioned. I was so attached to the first car. now I have a few of them and am unattached. They are money makers and that is all. Aside from maintenance, I am not interested.
Exactly! very well said! thanks for watching.
Great tips and information. I'm about to host my first trip. Please share some of your reply templates. Thank you
Hello Patrick, thanks for watching, please find the templates below: www.fernandoherrera.org/post/pre-written-text-messages-you-need-for-turo
Thanks for the info! I found out that if you can prove the bad review was based off of being petty for cleaning and refueling fees, you can get the review removed. Especially when all the other messages were kind and there was no issues prior to the charge at the end.
Wow thanks for sharing and watching

Great video! I’m new to Turo and I wish I would’ve watch your video, before my first trip as a host.
Hello Thomas, welcome to the Turo community, there are always lots of things to learn, learning myself new things on some trips. Let me know if you got any video suggestions about questions or concerns you have or had before to help others out.
@@fernando_h_001 question, can you email me at: thayesj74@gmail.com

Hi Fernando
If you purchase a car for 40k and you finance it for 3 years.
Your Turo business was able to cover mortgage and generate extra cash.
then sold it for 25k after 3 years
Do you have to to pay taxes on the 25K?
Your videos are great.
It will be great if you can make a video to detail one example of when you purchase a car for turo business and then when you sell it, what is the list of profits and tax deductions and how much you pay tax when you sell the car.
Thank you
Looking forward to your reply
For the cleaning fee, I warn them in my description to please return the car clean, or a cleaning fee would be applied! It's mainly for the inside of the car. The outside would get dirty regardless.
Agree! Normally as long as you have clear communication its all good.
Great Video!!! Thank you so much!! Excited to start!!

Hello Antonio, absolutelyHello this is Luis your Host, I just wanted to go over some details about your check in process. This will be a self check in process, when you arrive to the car you can call me or text me and I will remotely unlock the car. The key will be in the cupholder in the center. And to turn on the car and operate the car I have attached a link with some video tutorials.

Also since I won’t be seeing you in person I need you to text me a picture holding your drivers license with the car in the background in order for me to unlock the car. This is the way used to validate your identity.
Please also No smoking, there is a standard $150 smoking cleanup fee and it is cigarettes it will be $300 that will be charged on card on file. Smoking is NOT optional so let’s try to leave this car smelling good for other guests.
To ensure you don’t get any post cleanup fees or post trip charging fees please return the car clean and with the same charge level as received. Also Pet hair is not included, please return clean if traveling with pets or be subject to a $120 cleaning fee.
All Tesla superchargers do charge you for charging, however this should be approximately $5-12 depending on the amount you charge. These charges will be billed to my Tesla account directly and i’ll ask for reimbursement after trip. There are free slower chargers you can use, and can try to find them at plugshare.com. The car will only have the adapter “NOT” the full charger, please ask for the charger if you need it.
If you want to use the tesla app, send me an email and i’ll add you as a driver. Thank you and hope you enjoy your trip. Thanks , thank you for watching and commenting.

Airport drop off instructions
I hope your trip and landing to Vegas was a pleasurable one. I have left the car at Terminal 1 short term parking. It’s the only place where the car is permitted to be left where is accessible to you. The key will be inside the Car located in Level 2M of the short term parking lot in terminal 1. If you are landing in terminal 3 you must take a shuttle to terminal 1 (they are free and easy to use).
Once you are in front of the car please call me or text me and I will verify your identity by either sending me a selfie with your drivers license and the car in the background or video call so you can show me your drivers license.
I’ll remotely unlock the car and you can now enjoy your stay in Vegas. Also i left the parking pass next to the key, (they are located in the center console storage.) you will need to use that to exit depending on your time it should be a fee of $3-$6.
Please also No smoking, there is a standard $150 smoking cleanup fee and it is cigarettes it will be $300 that will be charged on card on file. Let’s try to leave this car smelling good for other guests.

If you have questions i’m here to help you, also to make sure the car is being charged in a casino (plugshare.com) or at a Tesla supercharger (typically cost $10-$13 to charge), adapter is in the trunk if needed.

you can automate your messages. that way you only have to do that one time for all your customers
Hey Fernando, I was wondering if instead of taking pictures of the car before renting it out if instead you could simply take one video documenting the state of the car which to me would seem easier than saving 50 or so pictures to my phone.
That is a great idea. I was thinking the same as well.
So I'm glad you asked this, I once asked a Turo rep, and they said video is just as effective as images. For some reason I'm just more used to the pictures but videos work well too!
@@fernando_h_001 Okay, thanks
Good afternoon. Can you please share pre written messages for the guest please ? Any recommendations for what kind of locks ? Thank you. Wonderful information
Hello Ashok, for sure no problem here is the text template, My recommendation for licks would be something in Amazon perhaps no more than $100 should do, but you want to make sure it is big enough for your key to fit. If you are using fobs, make sure you use a fob transmitter bag, to prevent guests or strangers to be able to open the car.

Hey! so how do you add claims to your rental agreement contract? thx
Good tips!
Glad it was helpful!
I think moovetrax gps is also a must have
Great tips! I too want to Turo out my Model3. Which tracker did you end up getting? Also what deductible did you end up choosing. I was hesitant to rent it out like you but I figured if I can keep cost low of monthly payments it’ll be worth it. I hardly drive it since I work from home. Additionally, what’s the process of taking it to the air port?
Hello thanks for watchign Cesar, here are the answer to your questions:
1. I ended up using apple airtags. Apple Airtag amzn.to/3HaWZ9V
2. I ended up using the 75 plan and then eventually moved to the 80 plan once i was more comfortable.
3. I think it will pay off itself easily. Just be willing to list price competitively.
4. I got a video where I can walk you though. ruclips.net/video/rBeeBqYxb0c/видео.html
Thanks for watching!>
Model 3 already has tracking via the app doesn't it?
Can you not use the model 3 tracker built into the app?
Great video thanks but I hit a couple of questions you might have an answer for it:
How many days a month you successfully booked your car on Turo? How many days you had with the lowest month and how many days you had with your highest month?
Do you have any tips on how to rent a car on Turo fully remotely in a different state that I live in? It’s going to be difficult to have pre trip photo; deliver the car or collect the car or even park and clean the car?! But I believe its worth the adventure?
Thanks for watching and reaching out, below are my answers:
1. I would calculate about 80% ocupancy so 20-25 days per month.
2. There were months where I was fully booked every day and there was one month I was booked only some days because the vehilce was left in california and could not rent it out, and so that was a very bad experience. I've left link to that video below.
3. You would need a cleaning crew who can wash clean and drive the car to drop off spaces when needed and a Virtual assistant or yourself to communicate with customer. I know people that do this, and it seems to work for them.

First of all I would to say thank you to your video and more power. Just a have few questions regarding insurance what can you say or advise about personal insurance, commercial and turo ( 60%, 75%, 80%, 85% & 90%). Thanks in advance.
Hello Norber, thank you for watching and commenting, So in regards to selecting the right insurance i've made a video you should watch, but I would not reccomend commercial insurance unless you really want to split the risk liability or have over 10 cars. ruclips.net/video/UlvYJtP5cBU/видео.html
Hey Fernando, what is the year and type of Tesla you may want to sell. When 10 months are up...
Hi. I'm thinking of putting my Tesla M3 on Turo. I have a few questions, if you have time. 1. Is the Tesla app just as good at tracking the car as an extra gps tracker? 2. Do you have to lend the renter you key card? Could you not just set them up temporarily on your Tesla account and put keyless driving on? Sorry if these are silly questions!
Hello thanks for watching, please find the answer to your questions below:
1. Yes tesla app is really good, you really odn't need another tracker.
2. I normally would give them the key but would offer the option to add them as a driver since most people would leave the car unlocked because they don't know how to lock it, Using the app is much safer for the car in my experience.
3. No silly questions in my channel all great questions! Hope this helped. !

Hello, do you have any recommendations on where to put the lock box when you drop off the car? Thank you.
It really depends some people will put it on the door handle, I liked to put min under the car I found a place where it wouldnt' affect when I drove, and woudln't be very visible.
Where do you typically put your car and key lock box?
I would normally put it under the car I would find a spot.
Super helpful vid. I’m starting as a host this week! Would definitely like those pre written texts if you don’t mind. Also, what would you recommend for key pick up of a car that’s not automated like the Tesla?

Hello Arion, thanks for watching please find the text templates below: www.fernandoherrera.org/post/pre-written-text-messages-you-need-for-turo.

Hey Fernando!!! Do you recommend any type of seat covers? If so, is leather preferred. Also floor mats are they worth the investment!? Thanks so much for the great info! I actually just put my first car on the other day and in my area there are only two cars listed within a 20 mile radius. How cool is that. I feel like we're on the ground floor.
Hello Samantha, thanks for watching and commenting. I would prefer leather, however if you can't have that then seat covers should be fine, there is also a product they sell that you can spray on your seats and its like a ceramic coat on seats that prevent leaks and stains to get on your seats easily. I'm really excited for you being one of the few Turo hosts in your area, really hope it goes well for you!
Weather Tech mats are what I use here in Hawaii. They decrease by clean-up time 100 fold, especially for the sand.
How is Turo going so far?
I’m hoping to start the business 👩💼 soon!!
What does the lock box keep keys locked in it and guest open it. Also turo require guest id or you’re going to need to ask guess for ID when rent your car out
Turo takes customers information when registering in the app, hwoever for every trip you must verify ID when you rent the car out.
Need some advise …I dont feel comfortable booking my cars first trip with a member that does not have reviews what do you recommend

For the trackers, how often do guests pull the tracker out of the obdII port?
I never had the OBDII port tracker I always had a hardwired tracker which made it very complicated to remove. But i have hear some guests will remove the tracker if in the OBDII port.
I have a trip that’s booked today at 8 PM but they want me to deliver the car at 9 PM. Am I okay with just doing that or how can I modify the trip to be at 9 PM instead of 8? Just don’t want to have the check in process messed up since it’s an hour later than when they initially booked it!
Hello, I apologize for the late reply, Turo normally gives you and the guest a 1 hour cushion, normally turo is quite flexible on this, really it depends on you willing to accept those terms. Let me know how it went!
@@fernando_h_001 thanks! The renter went in and changed the time to later so it worked out great! Thanks for the response 😊
You sell your car after you've had them on Toro for a few months? You should make a video about that maybe.
Hello Jacee, currently I have not sold any one of my vehicles. They are still making money for me in the platform, so i'm happy. But once I do sell them I'll be sure to make a video about it.
nothing really removes cigarette smell. It's disgusting. Is there something in place where the renter can be charged for returning the car with a smoke smell?
Thanks for watching, much appreciated. I agree I really really disliked when guests smoked cigarrets the smell always comes back. It was until after like 10 ozone machine runs that I was able to remvoe the smell.

Hi Fernando. We just started as hosts and wanted to ask your thoughts on a front and rear camera for accidents ?
Hello Virgo, thanks for watching, hope the turo host journey is going well. I think front a rear camaras are great specially to have if any accident occurs. However Turo does a great job covering you in the case you have pre and post trip pictures even if ou don't have a rear-front camara. But I personally think they are worth the investment.

Thanks Fernando, can u share those text scripts please as well ?
Hello Alex, thanks for watching my video, absolutely please find the template below: www.fernandoherrera.org/blog
can you put links to Tracker , lockbox and ozone machine . thanks
Hello, thanks for watching I'm putting links for the tracker videos and the ozon machine. ruclips.net/video/8O74H8XlYZA/видео.html
The problem with the lockbox is that the car will start the engine anyway.
the person does not need to know the code to start the vehicle.
very dangerous advice.
But the rest is great! Keep going!
Hello Lukasz, thanks for commenting, this is something I agree I should've pointed out on the video, there are bags, that block the Fob from allowing the keyless transmitter to work. However you have to be mindfull since the guest will be placing the car back and you have to trust they will leave everything correctly.
can share some welcome text message template please
Yes you can find the template at the following link: www.fernandoherrera.org/
Thanks for watching my videos!
Hi great video, very helpful. Just curious, if you are using AirTag to track your car, did you have any problem with guests ? Is it have privacy issues? Because if you put into your car, if someone use a iPhone, they will be notified there is airtag close by.
Hey bro how is air tag work in your car ?
Hello, yes Airtags work well, I think overall you can't track them in real time but almost in real time.
I suggest just get a tracker installed inside motor/computer.
Hello, Fernando great video, could I please get those templates. Thank you
Hello Christian, thank you for watching, and of course please find below the text template.
Hello this is Luis your Host, I just wanted to go over some details about your check in process. This will be a self check in process, when you arrive to the car you can call me or text me and I will remotely unlock the car. The key will be in the cupholder in the center. And to turn on the car and operate the car I have attached a link with some video tutorials.

Fernando, what would you say to the car renter about gps tracking?
Hello Jen, thanks for watching and sorry for the late response. I would normally just be transparent and let them know i'm tracking the car for safety and to ensure they are taking care of the car as well. Never had anyone complain.
Cleaning ? I chose to get a cleaning fee when I rented a Turo vehicle. Thoughts ?
If you are a guest it may make sense if you are in vacation mode and don't want cleaning a car, if not, then I would not select it.
Hey Fernando, great video, can you send me the text templates please. Thank you
Sure here it is! Thanks for watching. www.fernandoherrera.org/post/pre-written-text-messages-you-need-for-turo
Hey so if you’re remotely unlocking the car upon your renters arrival, what is the lockbox for exactly?
Hello Kia, that is a great question, so in reality only the tesla has the remote lock and unlock, the Prius doesn't so that's where I use the lock box.
I'm going to just do a go pro 360 video before each rental.
That would be interesting to watch.
Can I have a pre written template you use?

Do you get cars from business credit or personal loans
Normally Personal, since comercial loans may require for me to have comercial insurance and is much more expensive than personal. But as you grow you will need to switch to commercial.
Can you link the Ozone you bought from Amazon please.
Yes it is located in the description
I need a few prewritten texts

How do you insure your vehicle
Hello Paul this is a great question, I have a video detailing this specific question ruclips.net/video/UlvYJtP5cBU/видео.html
Hi Fernando thank you for the info. What do you do with the car's registration because mine has my name and address on it. I'd prefer my renters not having access to this information.
Hello Faatoese, Thanks for watching so normally I leave my registration in the car since I believe it is required by law to do so. However i’ve seen some hosts put a copy of the registration and blur the address, or simply not include it. If they need it then they can call you. Hope this helps you.
Hey man, loved this video. I was thinking on buy the model 3 and renting it out on Turo just to make the monthly payment. Do you think it’s worth doing that or just keep it for personal use?
Hello thank you for watching, I di think buying a model 3 is worth purchasing and listing it on turo, however, keep in mind the increasing prices going on right now, and the how long a model 3 may take for you to take delivery of. I would not recommend buying a used tesla, however, you can still make it work, I've just seen that used teslas are frequently more expensive than new ones (Right now).
Don’t do it, I bought 3 Teslas and 1 Porsche. Too much work and too many scratches on my wheels. People leave the car open on daily bases. Eat inside my car despite I’m telling them. It to. Lots of time my 4 cars is on the street not making any money.
@@marcobrasilgv where do you rent out at? and you think people will not eat in a car?
