Self-manage or hire a manager?
The real costs of running a short-term rental yourself, side by side with full-service management.
Self-managing can work, until a 2 a.m. guest message, a same-day cleaning fall-through, or a pricing mistake eats a weekend of revenue. Here is an honest comparison.
Your time has a cost
Guest messaging, scheduling cleaners, restocking, and handling issues add up to real hours every week. For most owners, that time is worth more elsewhere.
Pricing and distribution are full-time work
Staying competitive across Airbnb, Vrbo, and Booking.com means adjusting rates constantly and keeping calendars in sync. Software helps, but it still needs a hand that knows your market.
What full-service actually covers
We handle listings, dynamic pricing, smart-lock access, cleaning, maintenance, and round-the-clock guest support, then send you a monthly payout. Start with a free estimate to see what your home could earn under management.
