The things owners actually ask.

We run the property — listings, pricing, guests, turnovers and maintenance — while you keep ownership of the accounts and receive guest funds directly. We're a hospitality and marketing agent, not a property manager holding your money.

A manager typically holds the accounts, collects the rents and applies one operating standard across a large portfolio. We do the opposite on all three counts, and we cap the book so the standard survives.

Door County, Wisconsin. Realistically the southern and central peninsula, because we visit every property personally.

Five in this first year. It's a real ceiling, not a marketing device.

20% of gross rents plus a $199 monthly retainer — $22,388 a year on a property grossing $100,000. On-site work beyond the included scope is $45 an hour with travel. See pricing.

Cleaning is charged to the guest as a separate fee, as it is on almost every listing. You're not out of pocket for guest turnovers.Confirm

Airbnb and Vrbo pay you directly on their own schedules. We invoice you monthly, by the 5th, for the prior month.Confirm

You do — it's your asset. We never spend more than $500 on your behalf without your approval, and preventive inspection work is inside the retainer.Confirm

$995 once, covering cohost setup, the listing rebuild, your direct booking site and sales page, and installation of the guest technology. Hardware is billed at cost with no markup and belongs to you. Waived entirely for the five founding properties, hardware included.

The StayReady maintenance layer — the same 200-point protocol a self-managing owner buys at $159 a month, plus priority response and the annual Property Fresh service. It's charged separately so the preventive work can't quietly stop happening in a slow season.

Yes, whenever you want — and you don't have to ask us. Your OwnerRez owner portal shows your calendar, bookings and statements, and you can block your own dates from it directly. We'll tell you honestly what a peak-season block costs in revenue, and then it's your call.Confirm

Usually a few things — the baseline assessment finds them. Most are small and most pay for themselves inside a season.

You do. If you leave, it goes with you, along with the domain and the guest list.Confirm

Locks, sensors and similar equipment installed at your cost belong to you and stay with the property.Confirm

We do, on every booking, using platform verification plus our own rules on party risk, local bookings and group composition.Confirm

Yes. Every guest signs a rental agreement through OwnerRez before arrival, on top of Airbnb's or Vrbo's terms. Platform terms are an agreement between the guest and the platform; this one is between the guest and you, which is what you want if a stay goes wrong.Confirm

We document it, file the platform claim, and manage the repair. Recovery beyond the platform's cover depends on the deposit and insurance arrangements set out in your agreement.Confirm

Your call, per property. Pet fees are revenue to you and pet stays are billed a higher clean.Confirm

We do — a person, not an autoresponder. The booking flow, guidebook and door code are all digital because guests prefer it that way, but when something is actually wrong a human answers.

Airbnb, Vrbo, Booking.com, Google Vacation Rentals and its own direct booking site, kept in sync. All of it under your accounts.

Our sister operation — the preventive maintenance and inspection system that runs the 200-point checklist. It's the reason we can perform maintenance rather than only coordinate it.

On a scheduled cadence through the season plus a full inspection at open and close, with a photographic record you can see.Confirm

We handle it, on site, usually the same day. That's the point of being local.

Yes — Wisconsin requires a tourist rooming house license, and most Door County municipalities add their own short-term rental permit. We track both.

Door County levies room tax, and Wisconsin sales tax applies. Platforms collect some of it and not all of it; we keep the calendar straight.Confirm

Frequently, and they vary by municipality. We check yours before setting the listing capacity.

About 21 days from signing to an open calendar. See how it works.

Month to month, 30 days' notice either way.Confirm

With a five-property cap and a deliberate spread across the county, direct comp-set overlap is something we manage rather than pretend away. We'll tell you before it happens.

The agreement ends with the sale. The brand and site transfer with the home if the buyer wants them.Confirm
