Peace of mind. Your valuable rental property is well-taken care of and managed by a local company year-round.
Professionally designed marketing. From print to the web, property management companies have professionals on staff to market your property to the best and largest audience possible.
Accounting. Property managers are responsible for rent collection, tracking deposits, and many offer administrative work such as ensuring mortgages, taxes, insurance premiums and maintenance bills are all paid on time.
Extra income. Who doesn’t want that nowadays? Renting out your property through a management firm increases your chance to earn income from your vacation rental home at one of the world’s most popular vacation destinations.
Taxes. There are many tax advantages to having a real estate investment. Most property management firms can help you maximize those advantages.
Your vacation. Your rental is also a place where you can vacation with the security that your investment has been well-maintained when you’re not there.
Staffing. Property management firms offer a staffed front desk, with check-in and checkout services, local vendors for maintenance issues and more.

THE RENTER

Sometimes the best surprise is no surprise. That certainly is true when it comes to renting a vacation property. When spending your hard-earned money on your vacation, nothing is worse than arriving at your destination and finding something completely different than what you thought you had booked.

Here are some advantages of using a property management company:

Peace of mind. With today’s technology, property management companies offer virtual tours of properties, customer reviews and more. You’ll know what you’re getting up-front.
Local managers. If you rent from a private owner, that person is usually hundreds of miles away. If a maintenance or other issue arises, would you prefer someone around the corner or someone in another state to handle that problem? Property management companies work with local vendors so that if there is a maintenance problem, you get prompt service.
Variety. Property management companies offer a wide variety of options, from condos to houses, from large to small and in-between.
Local knowledge. Locally-owned and operated property management companies can help you get around our sometimes confusing island. Need to find a certain restaurant, beach or other locale? The people who work at local property management companies can give you the best advice on local favorites.
More space. Villa, condo and other vacation rentals have kitchens, living rooms and other gathering areas for family and friends.
Privacy. A spacious villa or condo affords more privacy than a single room, especially when it comes to families.
Pets. You can work with a property management company to identify properties that welcome Fido along on your vacation.
