Is a property manager right for you?
A property manager may be a good fit if…
You live far away from
your property
Guest messages are becoming overwhelming
Coordinating cleaners and maintenance takes too much time
You want to increase occupancy and revenue
You are looking to grow your income without adding another full-time job.
You’re buying your first vacation rental and don’t know where to start
Finding the right property manager is harder than it should be
Most owners end up:
Contacting five different companies just to compare pricing
Hearing the same sales pitch over and over
Having no way to verify who’s actually performing well
Wondering whether they’re giving away too much commission
Unsure what questions they should even be asking
That’s why we built Hospitable’s Property Manager Marketplace.
What does a property manager actually do?
A great property manager handles everything that turns hosting into a full-time job.
From guest communication and pricing to cleaning, maintenance, reviews, and multi-channel management across Airbnb, Vrbo, and Booking.com.
You earn the income. They handle the work.
Maximizing revenue matters, but not at the expense of five-star guest experiences. I was looking for a property manager who understands both.

Common questions
How much does a vacation rental property manager cost?
Most vacation rental property managers charge between 10% and 30% of your booking revenue, depending on your location, the services included, and how hands-on you want them to be. Some also offer fixed monthly pricing or à la carte services. It’s important to compare not just the fee, but what’s included and the value they can add through higher occupancy, better pricing, and improved guest experiences.
How do I choose a property manager?
Look for a property manager with experience in your local market, a proven track record of strong guest reviews, and transparent communication. Ask about their pricing, marketing strategy, pricing approach, maintenance process, and how they’ll maximize your property’s performance. The best property manager isn’t necessarily the cheapest, but the one that’s the best fit for your goals.
Should I self-manage my Airbnb?
Self-managing can work well if you have the time, live close to your property, and enjoy handling guest communication and day-to-day operations. If you’d rather save time, live further away, or want a more hands-off investment, a property manager can take care of the operational work while helping your property perform at its best.
Can I still use my vacation home?
Yes. Most property managers work around your personal schedule and will block out dates whenever you want to use your property. During your initial conversations, discuss how often you plan to stay and how owner bookings are managed to ensure it fits your needs.
