Our Story
We’ve seen it all firsthand. Our friend’s excitement at owning an investment property and wanting to rent it as a short term rental. From setting up listings on BnB, Stayz and other websites to managing bookings and making sure the properties were cleaned. But after a few months the excitement wore off and they realised there’s a lot more to managing holiday rental properties than getting bookings including:
- Making sure the properties were well clean and well maintained.
- Employing dependable and professional cleaners.
- Making sure the properties had WiFi and TV access, a security system and key safe.
- Making sure the holiday homes complied with local Council code of conduct and registration requirements.
- Following up guests and encouraging them to leave 5-star reviews.
- Ensuring the linen, towels, crockery and other household items were high quality and not damaged.
- Keeping the garden managed and making sure any outdoor furniture and BBQs were safe and functioning okay.
How is Run My BnB different to other BnB managers?
Our BnB management service team understand what it takes to run a successful short term rental and maximise your rental return. We know you’ve worked hard to buy property to improve your financial future. Yet, we also know how stressful and tiring it can be to try to manage investment properties by yourself! In between going to work, looking after your family and running your home, it can be hard to find time to:
- List your property professionally.
- Get bookings, price the property competitively and get 5 star reviews.
- Never ending guest communication.
- Ensure the property is clean.
And then there’s the unexpected hassles that come like:
- Guests not being screened properly and having out of control parties.
- Complaints that the hot water system has blown up or the windows and doors aren’t locking properly.
- Damage to the property that needs to be fixed before it can be rented again.
- Cleaners not turning up on time - or at all!
