Should I Airbnb My Investment Property — Or Hire a Professional?
It Looks Easy… Until It’s Not
At first glance, Airbnb seems manageable. You create a listing, upload some photos, respond to guests, and hand over keys. Right?
In reality, hosting is a full-time customer service operation — and the more successful your listing becomes, the more time it demands.
What Most Owners Don’t Anticipate
Here’s what typically catches DIY hosts off guard:
Dynamic pricing and algorithm shifts
Calendar sync issues
Guest disputes and review strategy
Missed cleanings or double bookings
Linen replacement and resupply
Rising guest expectations with no buffer
It’s manageable for one week. It’s overwhelming by week twelve.
What We Do Differently
We run your listing like a boutique hotel — with systems, quality control, backup plans, and round-the-clock guest support. You don’t need to be on-call, answer messages at 11pm, or problem-solve WiFi outages while on holiday.
We handle:
✔ Photography & setup
✔ Guest screening
✔ Communication
✔ Cleaning coordination
✔ Property inspections
✔ Monthly reporting
You collect the income — and your property is better for it.
When It Makes Sense to DIY
If you live nearby, have plenty of time, enjoy hospitality, and are okay taking a few hits along the way — go for it. Some owners love it.
But if you value:
Your time
Your weekends
Your sanity
Your property’s long-term condition
…you’ll likely get more — and stress less — with professional help.
