Security deposits must be handled carefully — Stripe authorizations let you hold a deposit without charging. Define your damage policy and dispute resolution process before launch.
Peer-to-peer rentals involve real liability. Most platforms either require renters to have their own insurance or offer protection plans (like Airbnb's AirCover). Consult a lawyer before launch.
Race conditions in availability calendars can cause double-bookings. Use database-level transactions and pessimistic locking when confirming bookings to prevent this.
Rough estimates per feature. Our fixed-price MVP bundles all of these — see the full Rental App cost guide.
