New York may be the city that never sleeps, but when you are in the Big Apple some quality shut eye is definitely recommended. While there are some great hotels in New York, Airbnb is one of the most popular options for anyone on vacation – and for anyone who owns a property the much-loved rental website means there is profit to be made. But while it’s easy to list your home on Airbnb, managing guests, cleaning and keeping up maintenance is a constant hassle – which is where short term property rental management companies come in. These specialist Airbnb management companies can take care of everything, even putting your home on other sites like VRBO or Booking.com to maximise the outreach. Here are three of the best Airbnb management companies in NYC.
Awning
Awning is a trusted vacation rental management company based in San Francisco with very competitive rates starting at 15 per cent of revenue. There is a staggering array of services on offer too through Awning, ranging from regular service of the hot tub to lawn maintenance, laundry, pool maintenance, linen service and listing optimisation, as well as offering insurance for hosts and their properties. The specialist managers assigned to your property can also organise additional services such as professional photography and guest screening. Add to this guest communications that are available 24 hours a day and Awning is a great choice. A 2am call about a toilet not working? No problem with Awning.
Guestable
Guestable is another leading Airbnb property management company that you will find all over the United States. What makes Guestable so good is a combination of top notch hospitality services that you would expect in a premium hotel, combined with a high tech approach to getting the best price for your property, including price optimization on Airbnb, VRBO, Booking.com and Expedia, as well as listing and search engine optimization. Guestable takes care of your short term Airbnb rentals across the board, with specialist leaders in hospitality who will organise everything from professional cleaning to ensuring guests have a five-star stay. Guestable also promises to keep your property in the same condition you left it, with regular inspections and maintenance taken care of.
MyHouseMgmt
MyHouseMgmt is an Airbnb short term rental management company that operates in New York and focuses on the trendy area of Brooklyn. What makes this company worthy of note is how much they charge – an ultra competitive 10 per cent management fee that is more than a match for some similar management companies. It’s worth noting that MyHouseMgmt provides full-service management of Airbnb rental properties that have reservations of 30 nights or more. The service includes listing creation and photography, cleaning and laundry, guest vetting and daily pricing and calendar optimization.
