I would say that I’m getting 70% vrbo vs Airbnb. Which i actually prefer because the majority of my vrbo bookings are opting $59 for accidental insurance. Also, if you don’t have a $500 annual plan with vrbo- keep calling until someone offers it. I threatened to cancel and it suddenly became available when speaking with vrbo for the 3rd time. 


Hi Jeff: What is the $500 annual plan with VRBO a subscription for listing ? In case of STR managed by property management (such as Evolve, Vacasa, Red Awning, etc.) who pays for this ?

Thanks everyone for taking the time and posting reply to my question above. Really appreciate it.

@Jignesh S. I own an run a local STR management company in the lakes region. We see a lot of owners in your same predicament. The decision becomes how involved you want to be. Lower management rates will get you "heads in beds", but won't screen guest or be responsive and responsible if guests cause issues in the homes neighborhoods. You will be responsible for cleaners and how well of a job they do. We are responsible for who stays in the home, how they stay in the home and how cleaners and inspectors maintain the home between guests. It's a handful, and a lot more involved than most think. Happy to connect and happy to help!

 Hi @Kyle Lacasse -- Thanks so much for your advise and thanks for offering to connect. I'd like to connect with you. Are you available this week ? 

Hi,

We are looking to work with a STR property management company for a property in NH Lakes region. We looked into local PM companies but found their commission is 15-20% + $50-$75 additional for each booking, which seems too high. So we are looking to pick amongst Evolve, Red Awning or Vacasa. Anyone has an experience using any one or more of these and any advise on the best of these 3 platforms ?

Thanks!
