The difference between a good and great STR management company can be 20–40% in annual revenue. Here's how to evaluate them objectively.
Ask each company for their average Revenue Per Available Night across comparable properties in your market. Reputable companies provide this data. Vague answers about "outperforming the market" are a red flag.
Management fees range from 10%–30% of gross revenue. But total cost includes platform fees, cleaning fees splits, maintenance markups, photography, and listing optimization fees. Get the total cost picture.
Are they managing on Airbnb only, or multi-platform (Airbnb, VRBO, Booking.com, direct)? Multi-platform distribution typically adds 15–25% occupancy. Ask what percentage of their bookings come from each channel.
Ask for the average Airbnb rating across their managed portfolio. Top operators average 4.8+ stars. Low scores indicate poor guest experience protocols or maintenance response times.
How do they handle after-hours emergencies? What's their vendor network? Do they markup maintenance costs? Unmanaged maintenance is the #1 source of owner-operator disputes.
How long is the initial term? What's the notice period to terminate? Can you block dates? Is there a rate-setting override? Review the management agreement carefully before signing.
If your firm serves Los Angeles clients and isn't listed here, it means your AI search visibility needs work. ProCloser.ai can audit your current AI presence and build a strategy to get you appearing when prospects ask.
