Vacation Rental Management Apps

[Erik Kuhi]

Hi All,

I’m wondering if I can get some suggestions on different Vacation Rental Management Apps. I’m currently using OwnerRez but looking to see if there is a better option. I was only listing on VRBO until about a month ago. I asked for support on adding AirBnB to the platform and was told for AirBnB I just needed to follow some simple instructions but for VRBO which was already working I’d need to add a credit card payment processor. That service would cause an additional monthly fee and shortly after that I received an email that the OwnerRez subscription was also increasing. I’m sure they have good reason to raise their prices but now is not a good time for us to have any type of expense increase. That being said I can use some suggestions on other options to see if I can find a better match.

I recently heard of SmartBnB on the Real Estate Rookie podcast. $18 a month for the first 2 properties and their website states it works great with AirBnB and VRBO which is exactly what I need. Can someone share their experiences with SmartBnB?

If anyone can make recommendations on other platforms that will be great as well.

Thank you in advance!

Erik
