First-Time Hosts
Your Home Has Been Sitting Empty. Let's Change That.
We know the thought of renting your home to strangers feels overwhelming. Damage, bad reviews, the sheer logistics of it all. We've designed every part of our process to eliminate those fears — and we've helped dozens of first-time hosts go from hesitant to thriving.
Quick Check
Is My Home Suitable?
- Does the home have a separate entrance or is it a full-home rental?
- Is there at least one full bathroom guests can use?
- Is there a functional kitchen or kitchenette?
- Is the property's zoning compatible with short-term rental use? (We help you confirm this.)
- Are there any HOA or strata restrictions on rentals?
- Is the home furnished (or close to it)? We can help with the last mile.
If you checked most of these, your home is likely a great candidate. Not sure? We'll assess it for free.
Your Protections
How We Prevent Bad Experiences
Guest Screening
We verify identity, check platform reviews, and enforce minimum stay requirements. Problematic bookings get filtered before they happen.
Security Deposits
Damage deposits and Airbnb/VRBO protection programs create a financial safety net. We've dealt with incidents — and they're rarer than you think.
Clear House Rules
We draft comprehensive rules covering noise, parking, occupancy, pets, and more. Guests agree before booking. No ambiguity.
Photo-Documented Turnovers
Every turnover is photographed before the next guest arrives. If something's off, we catch it before it becomes a problem.
Smart Lock Security
Every guest gets a unique code that expires at checkout. No physical keys to copy, no lockbox codes floating around.
24/7 Local Response
When something goes wrong — and occasionally it will — our team is there in minutes, not hours. Plumbing, lockouts, noise: handled.
