Many leads but not bookings on Furnished Finder - to to resolve

Tod DuBois
Posted

So I get 15-20 leads for each booking on Furnished Finder, which is a PITA because of all the manual follow-up and manual paperwork required vs AirBnB and others with instant booking and streamlined tenant approvals/payments. What do you suggest? These seem like good leads, but these nurses and doctors are busy people, and so am I. Neither have time for manual follow-up, paper Contracts, telephone interviews and other procedural steps typically required to complete a deposit and booking. What software do you use to allow almost instant booking for medium-term places and streamline leads from Furnished Finder?

Quote from @Tod DuBois:

Hostaway appears to integrate with the multiple channels - but I hate to do a software setup and learn it's not a good place to do what I need to get done (which is work as little as possible and optimize my occupancy). Anyone outsource the work overseas with any luck?


This is a big challenge in the MTR space. Most property management apps are built for LTR or STR. Since MTR is similar to both in different ways, you'll need a custom tech stack to cover all your needs.

I agree with Miguel, build your system, then hire a virtual assistant and train them how to use it. This is what I've done. Happy to help you get started.
