STR Tech Stack

Alex Dixon
  • Investor
Posted

Pulled this together for a RE Investor meet up on how "today's tech stack" is breaking down historical concerns of STRs being a time-suck for RE Investors when looking at either purchasing properties for STR deployment or evaluating assets for STR usage vs other strategies.

Got some great questions/feedback/thanks for walking the group through this and thought I'd share here.

I'm an IT Consulting guy by day & RE investor by night so getting into the details of all of the technology offerings, how they integrate, which capabilities overlap/don't, where integrated value sits, etc. exposes my nerdiness/love for this kind of stuff.

I spent close to six months looking at various vendors in the space, and below are some of the ones we ended up choosing (including one of our favorites, Hospitable).

Each of the hours underneath the categories refer to what I estimate the monthly time-savings are by deploying the technology within the box for us.

Great information! 
You hit pretty much every angle here. I would throw in a few more out there for you like Listing optimization: Rankbreeze and Intellihost, Data Companies: AirDNA, Mashvisor, etc., and guest verification platforms like Superhog or Chekin.

@Tom Dieringer you are correct that they are similar services. I use Hospitable and that was my choice in the end as well after trying all 3.
