For the Host Academy was created by Kierra of @kierracastle on Instagram. She knew there was a gap between new hosts entering the short-term rental market and guests of short-term rental platforms. And that's how it was born.

WE ARE A HOSTING ACADEMY FOR HIGH EARNING HOSTS LOOKING TO INCREASE THEIR BOOKINGS AND PROFITS

I'm a real estate investor with a focus on buy-and-hold investment strategies. I graduated from the University of Houston with my BBA in Accounting. I worked for two big-4 accounting firms but quickly realized AirBnB was my strong suit. My goal is to help you discover the world of STRs so you can have the knowledge readily available.

"I was already in AirBnB and had a few units before I got Kierra's course BUT the information that's in her course is very, very strategic. You can tell that she knows what she's doing. I got 3 courses before I got her course and I'm telling you...this girl knows her stuff."

"I had the pleasure of taking Kierra's BnB class and it was phenomenal. I took a chance and I bought the class. Upfront, it definitely sounds like an "oh wow" investment. But if you're like me and you've taken a lot of classes and you're weary, then I am telling you to take the class. This woman is amazing. You'll be educated and ready by the end of the class to run and own your own bnb business.

"If you're willing to make a major change in life and you're willing to put in the work, then Kierra's course will get you there. She teaches you about discipline. She has guided me and has helped my business flow the way it needs to flow. I've gotten so much out of this and overall, I just feel much more confident!"
