Key Characteristics To Look For When Choosing An Airbnb Property Management Company

Considerations When Choosing An Airbnb Property Management Company

When you are an Airbnb host, it is essential to go the extra mile to grow your business. Property management services offered by companies such as Airbnb can help with this. There are many reasons why hosts choose property management companies instead of managing their rental properties. Full-time hosts want to perfect the guest experience and ensure that everything runs smoothly for them. Management tasks can be highly time-consuming, especially for those who own more than one short-term rental.

Airbnb management companies can provide partial help with specific tasks or take over the management of their properties. Some of these Airbnb property managers provide the full spectrum of property management services, allowing a host to focus on scaling their business and not worry about managing it themselves. Below are a few things to consider when selecting a management company.

Reporting

Ensure that your Airbnb property management company can promptly address concerns and provide a clear audit trail for all funds related to each property. Ensure that the company provides monthly income and expense statements to make things easy to keep track of. These reports should also be available online.

Marketing

One of the most valuable services that an Airbnb property management company can provide to owners is marketing. In order to attract new clients, the best property managers have established a marketing program to make sure their properties are booked regularly. Good marketing will lead to more bookings and increased revenue. Make sure that there is a solid plan to market your unit with whichever management company you choose.

The top property management companies also benefit from a competitive advantage because they have in-depth knowledge of the local real estate market. This gives them the information to suggest competitive pricing and amenities to focus on to attract Airbnb guests. In competitive markets such as Fort Lauderdale, using a vacation rental management company that is well versed gives you a higher chance at standing out amongst the competition.

List of services

Instead of focusing purely on the amount a short-term rental property management company is charging, it is essential to know the quality and scope of services the company provides. If one company charges significantly less than others, the list of services may not be as complete or as in-depth. Taking a look at the reviews of their listings is another way to check the quality provided to the guests and provide clues to how the company is maintaining other homes that they manage.

By focusing more on the value of service, an excellent short-term rental management company can increase your ROI (even though they might charge a bit more) and reduce a lot of potential headaches.

A true local to South Florida, I was born and raised right here in Broward County. As an avid traveler, I have always loved staying in AirBNBs because it allowed me to have a more authentic experience of the city I was exploring. When presented with the opportunity to become a host in my hometown I was thrilled to bring that same experience to people visiting South Florida.
