Our commission and pricing vary by market and new properties are subject to an onboarding fee. In some markets, we also provide a fixed rent solution. For more information, please visit our pricing page or speak directly to our team. We are always happy to help!

Getting your property set up and ready for guests with GuestReady is made easy with our one-time onboarding fee (amount varies based on property size, location, and availability). This fee covers the cost of a professional photo shoot, creation of your online listing on various short-let platforms, and a visit from one of our staff members who will ensure that your home is equipped with all the necessary amenities for hosting guests. The onboarding fee is not charged upfront, but rather it is deducted from your first month’s rental income.
