Hi @MamaSarah and welcome to the forum.
Please don’t be too concerned about ‘council estate’ location. Sitters come from all backgrounds and all walks of life. Many also come from modest homes. The priority for sitters is that the home be clean and the homeowner be considerate of a sitter’s basic needs. You might want to read through this post:
Fostering a good stay for sitters
Your photos will be important. Make sure the areas are well lit and as tidy as you might keep your place when you are expecting visitors. Many sitters are turned off, for example, when the photo is of an unmade bed. A small thing perhaps, but it can make a difference.
Once you’ve done your listing you can share the information on the forum and ask for feedback. You can embed it in your username, or just add the location as shown in your listing and the date range. Forum members will be happy to give you constructive feedback.
