Curious about how it all works? We’ve put together a quick overview of the most common questions homeowners ask — from how to qualify, to who the guests are, to how payments and support work. Whether you’re still deciding or ready to move forward, this is a great place to get clear on the details.

Who can list their home?
Who are the guests?
Guests may include families of players, tournament executives, partners, and other professionals attending soccer-related events.
How much can I earn?
Earnings vary based on the size of your space, how many nights it is available, and other factors. A typical rental could earn around $2,500 for a 5-night stay. Rental of your primary or secondary residence is income tax-free for 14 days or less. We recommend you consult your CPA for full details.
Are there fees?
Does SHB handle security deposits?
No. SHB does not process or hold security deposits. If a homeowner chooses to require one, it must be collected and managed directly by the homeowner. View our Security Deposit Guidance PDF for details.

How much should I charge for my rental?
Soccer Housing Bureau has put together suggested rental ranges for Fayette County (Peachtree City, Fayetteville, Tyrone) to help hosts price competitively for the 2026 FIFA World Cup (click here to download).
Rates vary based on bedroom count, location, amenities (like pools, golf-cart access, EV chargers), and proximity to Trilith Studios.
Typical weekly rates range from $3,045 for 2-bedroom homes to $7,665+ for 5+ bedrooms, with premiums for high-demand features. Cleaning services ($250–$350 for a 4-bedroom) should also be factored into your rental plan.
Do I need to report the income on my taxes?
If you rent your primary residence for less than 14 days, you don’t need to report that income on your federal or state taxes. This is part of what’s commonly called the “Augusta Rule”. Connect with your CPA to ensure you qualify.
