Understanding Short Term Rentals

A short term rental is the renting out of a private room, apartment, or home for a period that is less than 31 days. The rental generally comes fully furnished and provides an alternative to a traditional motel or hotel room. They are especially popular in cities and towns that see a large amount of tourism and are a great way to stay in an area that lacks conventional accommodations. Short term rentals are also a way for residents and tenants to make extra cash on their primary home or vacation property while not in use. The short term rental industry has exploded in popularity with over 50% of travelers in 2019 searching for them leading to a 277% growth. Sites like Airbnb, HomeAway, FlipKey, and VRBO have seen record growth in recent years due to people looking for these non-traditional accommodations. However, some municipalities, apartment communities and HOAs have rules in place to limit or restrict the use of properties for short term rentals. Also, some states have put limitations in place such as the need to acquire a permit or license before a property can be rented out. Properties found not following the rules and not in compliance with regulations can be issued citations that are often aggressively pursued.

Short Term Rental Monitoring

Short term rentals create challenges for communities across the globe. Besides being restricted or limited to regulation in some areas they can cause annoyed residents, higher maintenance costs, and can lead to negative reviews . Whether you block, limit, or welcome short term rentals, a short term rental monitoring software like Property Guard can be a helpful tool.

Our proprietary software can save you hundreds of hours by sifting through online listings in a matter of seconds. Sets of data points gleaned from over 100,000 listings have enabled us to easily find offending hosts. This makes it easier for you to find out those that are not compliant.

Also, you will get an email weekly with a summary of the traffic that occurs around your community.

These powerful tools give you the advantage when it comes to short term rental monitoring in your community. Whether managing a city with over a million residents or small apartment buildings, everything can be directly controlled from your inbox. This is especially useful for those communities who like to take a hands-on approach as you can log in and review all of the listings and criteria yourself.
