Short-term rentals are a significant source of income for many hosts. Naturally, earnings can differ greatly depending on factors such as location, local competition, number of bedrooms, home amenities, guest reviews, and seasonal patterns (especially in Vancouver). Feel free to reach out to us for a free estimate of your potential earnings.

We charge a fee of 10% of the nightly rate for creating and managing your listing across multiple booking sites including Airbnb, VRBO, Booking.com, Expedia and others. Please note that after the listing is created, this 'Listing + Booking' service plan covers online services only. This is the better option for hosts who prefer to handle guest communication, check-ins, and cleaning/laundry themselves.

For our all-inclusive 'Co-Hosting' management plan, which includes guest communication, pre-screening, check-ins, cleaning/laundry and more, we charge a fee of 15% of the nightly rate.

Our expertise lies in our skill at decorating and furnishing short-term rentals, dynamic pricing optimization, and exceptional guest services. These strategies help us earn great reviews, secure top search rankings, and significantly increase your earnings compared to the average host. By enhancing guest experience and optimizing your Airbnb listing, our service often pays for itself.

If you wish to list your property on Airbnb for only a portion of the year, that's no problem! We are flexible and can accommodate any schedule or timeline. We will mark those specific dates on your booking calendar and coordinate with you when it's time to prepare it for guests once again. Similarly, if you desire to reserve your own property for personal stays or for someone else, we can easily do so, provided there are no conflicting bookings. We will reserve those dates for you and block them off in your centralized booking calendar.

Protecting your property from potential damage caused by guests is a valid concern for property owners and hosts. We address this concern by meticulously screening guests, ensuring they have verified identities and positive reviews from previous stays at other properties. Additionally, we make it a point to personally inquire and understand the travel plans of our guests. We take no risks when it comes to safeguarding your home. We also have guest liaisons available 24/7 to deal with emergencies and to mitigate any risks to your property.

It is a requirement that owners carry an adequate homeowners insurance policy to cover property damage, as well as 3rd party liability coverage. We partner with the only Vacation Rental Insurance company available - CertiStay. Their coverage costs less than $30 per month, and we coordinate with them to inspect your home upon sign-up.

Airbnb further provides complete primary insurance for home damage, injury or theft for up to $1 million through their Host Guarantee Program. We carry insurance as a business for our employees through WorkSafe BC.

Yes, short term rentals in Vancouver are licensed and taxed by the city as of April 1st, 2018.

When it comes to short-term rentals, there are various tax implications to consider. Fortunately, we provide assistance in setting up tax collection and remittance processes. The best part is that many of these taxes are paid by the guests themselves, so you can still maximize your revenue.

Renting out your property for short periods can be an ideal solution for those who want to be away from their property while still earning income from it. With the Empty Homes Tax, it is now more crucial than ever to ensure your property is occupied as soon as possible.
