What happens when a guest files a chargeback against a vacation rental host?

lilo auto-generates an evidence packet including check-in photo timestamps, voice call transcripts confirming the stay, signed house rules, and geolocation data. Hosts using lilo have reported chargebacks reversed within days using this tamper-proof evidence.

What can a vacation rental host do about review extortion?

lilo detects extortion patterns immediately when a guest threatens a negative review in exchange for a refund. The conversation is documented with consent, evidence is sealed with tamper-proof technology, and the host receives a response guide. This documented evidence supports platform review removal requests.

How can vacation rental hosts prevent squatters?

lilo monitors stay duration and flags squatter risk well before tenant rights could apply. An alert is sent to the host, a documentation chain is started automatically, and a legal packet is prepared with booking terms and payment records to support resolution before formal eviction becomes necessary.
