Problem Statement:
- Property address fields in Hospitable are locked permanently after a property is created
- If a property is missing an address, it won't appear on the Direct booking site
- There's currently no way to add or update the address without creating a new property
Current Workaround:
- Creating a new property and entering the address during setup
- This requires reconfiguring all integrations, calendars, and settings for the new property
Impact:
- Properties without addresses are invisible on the Direct booking site, resulting in lost bookings
- Creating duplicate properties is time-consuming and creates operational confusion
- Address changes on OTAs (Airbnb, VRBO) can't be synced to Hospitable
Proposed Solution:
- Enable editing of the Location → address fields in Hospitable after property creation
- Alternatively, provide a way to unlock or update address fields through Settings
Unlock:
- Hosts would be able to maintain accurate property information without creating duplicates
- All properties would be eligible for the Direct booking site
- Address changes on OTAs could be properly reflected in Hospitable
