Yard Sale groups provide a broad platform to get many eyeballs on the Houfy brand. And, it only takes a few minutes a week to post in multiple groups at once.  

Follow my tips and you'll see just how easy it is.  

1. Look for yard sale groups in areas where your guests typically come from, as well as local yard sale groups in your own area. Some people don't have the space to host visiting relatives/friends in their own home and will recommend a nearby rental. 

2. Seek out yard sale groups with a large number of members.  

3. Read the group rules. Most of the groups will require you to live in the area, but you're still going to apply anyway. When filling out the questions asked when joining, this is how to respond when asked where you live:

Hi, I have a vacation rental in Lake Lure (fill in the blank) and have open dates to sell. Many of my guests come from your area and I'd love to sell these dates off in your group. I hope you will make an exception for me. Thank you

4. Try to join at least 20 groups. You will be able to post in all of them at once with just one click.
