Oversight of property management on STRs

I have been doing STRs for a few years but my niche is long term rentals. I have been using my property management company to run the STRs.

They utilize AirBnb, VRBO, and their own website for the bookings.

I basically have zero oversight (besides logging into the AirBnb account) as the net income just gets deposited into my account.

Is there a way I can pull occupancy data, and average daily rates from VRBO and AirBnB (other than going into the history and doing the math myself?)

Is there a good platform or calendar that people are using to tie all three of these booking resources together?

Thanks for any input. I would just like some type of oversight of my PM so I can better track performance history.

Thanks

    You need to request a monthly report from your PM! It's what we do for clients, unless they request it bi-monthly. It should be a standard procedure with all PM companies, but unfortunately a lot of them just won't take/make the time for their clients.  


     Interesting!  What sort of report are you offering for your clients?
