How to choose a short-term rental manager
· UniqBnB
Handing your short-term rental to someone else is a big decision. We are investors too, and we built UniqBnB around our own rentals, so we know what you are weighing. Whoever you pick, ask these five questions first. We are glad to answer all five in writing.
Five questions to ask any rental manager
- What percentage do you charge, and on what amount?
- Which costs are billed to me besides the fee?
- How long is the contract, and how can I leave it?
- Who answers my guests, and when?
- How and when do I get paid?
A few more worth asking
- What exactly is included in the management agreement?
- How are statements, expenses and payouts reported to you?
- Who is your point of contact when something goes wrong at the property?
- How are guest issues and maintenance requests handled outside business hours?
