I need to check on an airbnb, specifically VRBO and a company handling the property named Everest Mwamba Investments. Yelp had several reviews. About 50/50 for positive/negative.

Also is it commonplace for one of these businesses to ask you to pay by check or wire the money and not pay by credit card?

I'm checking cause I dont want to spend this kind of money only to find out when I get to San Francisco, I have no where to stay cause they cashed my check and rented it out.

VRBO is associated with Home Away. Airbnb is a separate entity, not related to the Home Away group. Not commonplace to involve "wiring of money". Airbnb handles payments and fees. It wants your credit card info. And probably wants your bank info. If that's how you want to pay. The Home Away group sometimes wants your banking info. If the destination place has them handle the payments. Some Home Away listing sites, including VRBO allow listed sites to collect payment directly from renters.
