Across Our Team
“The hosts and on site caretakers were extremely friendly, proactive and helpful which really set my mind at ease allowing us to fully enjoy the weekend.”
— Kevin, Airbnb Guest • Retreat House NY
We intentionally limit our portfolio to ensure every property gets white-glove attention. Currently accepting applications for 2–3 new properties.
SOUND FAMILIAR?
You’re in the right place. We have experience and solutions for each of these.
IF YOU OWN
You’re answering guest messages at 2 AM, juggling cleaners, and still getting 4-star reviews when you know it’s a 5-star property. The “side income” is eating your weekends.
IF YOU INVEST
AirDNA says one number. The seller says another. You’re about to wire a down payment and you still don’t know what the property will actually earn — or whether short-term rentals are even legal there.
IF YOU SELL REAL ESTATE
Buyers ask “what could I rent this for?” — and you’re guessing. Or worse, you give them projections that are skewed and inflated. The result: loss of trust, lack of authority. You either lose the listing — or worse, you lose the relationship.
We don’t just identify the opportunity for higher ROI — we go further:
OWNERS
24/7 guest communication, cleaning coordination, strategic pricing, ongoing optimization. You wake up to reviews — not headaches.
INVESTORS
Real revenue projections, hand-picked market comparables, regulatory check, STR vs. LTR analysis. Delivered before you write the check.
REALTORS
White-label our analysis for your listings. Close STR-curious buyers with real numbers. Ask about realtor bonuses and our management referral program.

Stays Optimized transformed our Airbnb into a high-performing asset. Their pricing strategy alone increased our monthly revenue by 30%. Plus, our reviews have never been better.

We finally feel peace of mind knowing our property is in expert hands. Their communication is top-notch, and the guest experience consistently exceeds expectations.

The Do For You package gave us everything we didn't know we needed. The VIP launch plan set us up for success from day one. Highly recommend!
FAQ
Pricing is custom-quoted based on your property, market potential, and the level of involvement you want. We don’t publish a flat fee because every property is different — but pricing is tied to performance, not arbitrary. Request an analysis and we’ll show you exactly what your property could earn under each tier.
We optimize and manage across Airbnb, VRBO, Booking.com, and direct booking platforms. We use Hospitable as our central booking calendar to sync everything. The right channel mix depends on your market — strategic pricing is part of what we do.
DIY gets you a one-time listing audit, custom optimization blueprint, and A1 listing review — you run the property yourself. Do It With You adds setup, strategy sessions, listing maintenance, and quarterly reports — we coach, you operate. Do For You is full-service hosting and management — we handle 24/7 guest comms, cleaning, optimization, and design refresh. You wake up to reviews.
Yes. The IRS 7-Day Rule classifies STRs with average stays of 7 days or fewer as non-passive — which means rental losses can offset W-2 income. Combined with bonus depreciation and Real Estate Professional Status (REPS), STRs can be one of the most tax-advantaged real estate plays. We don’t give tax advice, but our analysis includes a tax strategy outline you can take to your CPA.
We white-label our signature property performance analysis for your STR-curious buyers. You give them confident, professional projections (instead of guessing or quoting AirDNA). When the deal closes and we manage the property, you get a referral. Ask about realtor bonuses and our management referral program.
Hudson Valley, NY and Charlotte, NC are our home markets — that’s where our team and direct portfolio live. We do listing audits and property performance analyses nationwide. For Done For You management, we partner with vetted local operators outside our home markets to maintain five-star service.
AirDNA gives you a market-level estimate based on aggregate data. It can’t account for your specific property’s photos, listing copy, pricing setup, or guest experience — all of which can shift revenue by 30%+ in either direction. Our signature property performance analysis runs through hand-picked comparables and the actual levers you can pull.
Listing optimizations typically show measurable lift in 30-45 days. Strategic pricing changes show within 2-3 booking cycles. Full management onboarding takes about 30 days, and most owners see five-star reviews start landing in their first month. We track everything — quarterly reports show exactly what changed.
