MTR/STR Property Management software.

[Alyssa Magyar]

I am in the process of setting up my townhome as a STR and MTR. I'm trying to self manage and was wondering if you all used a property management software to manage the STR and MTR properties or if you use 2 separate softwares if any? I would use software like Guesty for STR and Avail for MTR if i were to do one or the other type of rental, but not sure what i should use to manage them if using the townhome as both STR and MTR. My other thought would be to use software for STR and direct booking website for MTR. Any advice would be very helpful!

Hi! Congratulations on your MTR. 

I cross-list my MTR units on Furnished Finder and Airbnb. If they book directly on Airbnb, I do not send a lease. If they apply by email, I send them a lease on Apartments.com or Avail.co (a lengthier process, but sometimes tenants like to avoid the Airbnb fees). 

I use Hospitable to automate guest communication for my tenants, regardless of if they booked manually or via Airbnb. Let me know if there's anything I can clarify!
