WHY SHORT TERM RENTALS?
FLEXIBILITY
With short-term rentals, you have the flexibility to choose when you want to use the property for personal use and when you want to rent it out to guests. This allows you to generate income while still being able to enjoy it for your own vacations or personal use.
HIGHER INCOME POTENTIAL
One of the biggest advantages of short-term rentals is the potential for higher rental income compared to traditional long-term rentals. Short-term rentals typically command higher nightly rates allowing the ability to generate more revenue in a shorter amount of time, which can greatly impact your return on investment (ROI).
CREATIVE MANAGEMENT OPPORTUNITIES
Short-term rentals allow for more creative management strategies. For example, you can utilize various booking platforms to optimize your pricing and occupancy rates while also designing your property to provide guests with a unique experience they cannot receive by staying in a hotel.
TAX BENEFITS
Short-term rentals may offer tax benefits that can help offset expenses and increase your overall return on investment. Expenses related to managing and maintaining your short-term rental property, such as cleaning fees, property management fees, and maintenance costs, may be tax-deductible, reducing your overall tax liability.
MARKET DEMAND
The demand for short-term rentals has been on the rise, with more travelers opting for the convenience, flexibility, and unique experiences that short-term rentals offer. Owners can cater to a diverse market of travelers, including tourists, business travelers, families, and even locals looking for a staycation.These trends are expected to continue, especially in popular tourist destinations and specific urban markets. Investing in short-term rentals can potentially tap into a growing market demand, increasing your chances of achieving high occupancy rates and maximizing your rental income.
HOW IT WORKS
WE FIND THE DEAL
Our team diligently searches our target markets for opportunities that meet our strict deal analysis criteria. When we discover an opportunity that aligns with our vision, we present it to our investor list as an opportunity for purchase.
WE WALK YOU THROUGH THE BUYING PROCESS
Our team of experienced agents will guide you through the entire buying process including securing financing, making an offer, negotiating, inspections, and closing.
WE MANAGE THE PROPERTY
After closing you will have the option to work with our interior design team to create the specific look you are trying to achieve. From there we will manage the day-to-day operations of your short-term rental with a focus on driving revenue, providing incredible experiences, and ultimately providing strong returns.
WE DISTRIBUTE PROFITS
At the end of the month, you will receive a profit and loss statement detailing where revenues were generated. You will also have access to an owner’s portal where you can view all of the backend financials and bookings of your property.
MANAGEMENT SERVICES
FIRST IMPRESSIONS
Our team of copywriting experts and professional photographers work together to craft a tailor-made property listing just for you, featuring captivating imagery and a compelling description.
MARKETING
We ensure maximum visibility for your property by listing it on popular booking platforms such as Airbnb, VRBO, and other key platforms. Your property will also be visible on our popular social media channels and website, which helps create higher demand for your property.

PROFESSIONAL HOUSEKEEPING
Cleaning quality is the #1 make-or-break quality of an excellent guest experience versus an awful one. There’s never been a more important time in history to ensure a property is clean and safe for guests. Our cleaners are overseen by a dedicated Cleaning Manager & follow an extensive checklist before each stay. We source, schedule, manage, and pay cleaners for you.
