Has anyone on BP used Evolve Vacation Rentals
Hi Everyone,
We are closing on a vacation rental on Hutchinson Island, Ft Pierce Florida 1st week in December and have been talking to the folks from Evolve Vacation Rentals. They charge a flat rate of 10% and list on multiple sites. Has anyone used them and would be willing to share their experience.
Thanks In Advance,
Joe

Joe,
10% sounds very reasonable for managing a vacation rental.
I don't use a PM. I use Homeaway.com to advertise, take payments, manage my calendar ect.
I also have an AirBNB account but it doesn't produce many vacation rentals.
I have a great housekeeper that I text to schedule my cleaning.
I use a Lockbox for keys.
I have 2 Honeywell 9000 series thermostats to adjust temp when no one is there.
I also just recently installed a camera system so I can see who arrives and make sure no one is breaking in when vacant.
Very easy to manage remotely once everything is going.
