You shouldn’t have to manage your property manager.
Full-service short-term rental management for owners who want someone actually watching the revenue, the property, and the details. Flat 15%. 30-day out. Owner-operated, with AI-backed systems that keep watching.
The real problem
What goes wrong with traditional property management
Most owners don’t leave over one disaster. They leave because of the slow drift — and because by the time they notice, it has already cost them.
- You become the manager’s manager. You’re the one checking whether the listing is live, the price is right, and the cleaner actually showed up.
- Problems surface late. A dead hot tub, a bad review, a double-booking — found after a guest complains, not before.
- The fee isn’t really the fee. 20–35%, and then markups on cleaning, maintenance, and “service” you never see itemized until the statement.
- Revenue quietly slides. Pricing goes stale, the calendar gets soft, and nobody tells you why.
- You’re locked in. Long contracts, vague exits, and your listing and reviews held hostage the moment you try to leave.
What we actually do
What “someone is actually watching” means
We treat “done” as something we can prove, not something we hope happened. Every day our systems check the things that quietly cost owners money — and a person follows up on anything that looks off.
Is it live and correct?
The listing is up, the price matches the market, the calendar and lock codes are right — on every channel, not just our own dashboard.
Did the work actually happen?
Turnovers are photographed in ready condition. “The cleaner said it’s done” and “it’s done” are two different sentences.
What slipped?
Vendor no-shows, half-finished repairs, unanswered guests — tracked until they’re closed, not forgotten at shift change.
Does the owner know?
You get a plain closeout — what was checked, what was caught, and what it means for your revenue. Not a wall of task logs.
Fair terms
Why 15% and a 30-day out matter
One number, all in. No setup fee, no markup on cleaning or maintenance, no “service fees” buried in the statement. Most managers charge 20–35% and stack fees on top of that.
No long contract and no hostage situation. Your listing and your reviews are yours. If we ever stop earning the 15%, you can leave in 30 days — and we’ll help you move.
Why believe us
An operator with skin in the game
Nick Nyberg owns and runs his own short-term rental in Keystone. VACAZ manages a small, hands-on portfolio of real homes across Grand Lake, Winter Park, and Keystone in Colorado — plus Dallas–Irving and Kissimmee. You work with the operator, not a ticket queue.
When a guest trashed one of our managed homes and later claimed it was already damaged, the whole dispute came down to one question: can you prove it wasn’t? Because the home had been photographed in ready condition and dated before check-in, the claim was settled quickly — and the owner never had to argue it.
How we deliver it
Owner-operated. AI-powered. Accountable.
Technology is how we keep our attention from slipping — not a replacement for it.
Our systems handle the repetitive watching: confirming listings are live and priced right, that turnovers were documented, that nothing fell between people. When something looks wrong, a person steps in. Humans stay responsible for the judgment — pricing, hospitality, vendors, and the hard conversations. The same systems we use to run operations are the ones we keep building and improving in-house.

Get a free second opinion on your rental
Before you change anything, see how your rental is really doing. We’ll look at your listing and photos, how your headline and description read, where your pricing and minimum stays sit against comparable homes, which channels you’re on, your review signals, and the management economics — then hand you a few genuinely useful observations you can use with any manager.
If your current manager is crushing it, keep them. If they’re not, now you’ll know — and we should talk.
Where we operate
Colorado mountains — and a few places beyond
We also manage homes in Dallas–Irving, Texas and Kissimmee, Florida. Not sure if we cover your area? Ask — we’ll tell you straight.
See what someone actually watching would find.
A free second opinion, no obligation. If we’re not a fit, you’ll still walk away knowing more about your rental than you did this morning.
