This guide will help you to organize your thoughts and lay out a clear plan as to how your rental business will be successful today and in the future.

Put your best foot forward right from the start by establishing and following a detailed clean routine. A fine-tuned clean routine with attention to detail is a sure-fire path to achieving the standard that will keep the masses praising, and confidently booking, your properties all year long.

Do you want to start your own short-term rental business but don’t think you have enough capital to get started? What if you could get started with a minimal investment and very low risk?

In short-term property management, it's critical to ensure that all the i's are dotted and the t's are crossed before bookings roll in. This includes a clear outline of your policies and expectations in the form of a vacation rental agreement.

Protection plans aren’t all created equal, and as a property manager, you have unique considerations. You must identify not only what’s best for your vacation rental properties, clients, and guests but also what’s best for your property management business as a whole.

You can grow in two ways: inventory and revenue. For inventory, you can either approach owners and add them to your portfolio, or use rental arbitrage. But adding more inventory isn’t the only way to grow. Your goal should be to maximize each of your properties’ revenue potential as well.

The short-term rental industry is a complex, constantly evolving marketplace, and managing even one vacation rental can seem like a full time job. When deciding to manage your vacation rental property, there is a lot to consider.
