Questions owners ask

What does a vacation rental manager do in Pagosa Springs?

We list your home, price it through the seasons, talk to guests, clean and inspect between stays, handle repairs, take care of the county permit and the sales and lodging tax, and send you a monthly statement and deposit. You keep ownership and we take care of the work.

Do I need a permit to rent my home?

In unincorporated Archuleta County you need a Vacation Rental Permit before you advertise or take a booking, and we handle obtaining it for our owners. Homes inside the Town of Pagosa Springs may have different rules, so we check the right requirements for your address. See our county cheat sheet.

Which booking sites will my home be on?

Airbnb, VRBO, Marriott Homes & Villas, Google Vacation Rentals, Booking.com and more than 20 channels in total, all synchronized so double bookings cannot happen.

I already manage my rental myself, or use another manager. Can you take over?

Yes. We take over from self-managing owners and from other companies, and we help with the handover so bookings and guests carry on without a gap.

How and when do I get paid?

You receive a monthly owner statement and direct deposit, and you can see how your home is doing in your owner portal at any time.

How much does it cost?

Our percentage depends on the home and the services you want, so we walk through it in a free evaluation. Want context first? See typical management fees in Colorado mountain towns and what to compare.

I own a home I lease by the year. Is this for me?

Vacation rental management is for stays under 30 days. For homes leased long term, see our long-term rental liaison.

Good to know. Short-term rental rules differ between the Town of Pagosa Springs and unincorporated Archuleta County. This page is general information, not legal advice. See our county cheat sheet and call us about your address.
