“Self-managing” is enjoyable for those who truly want to do it, but getting started is daunting and the unknown processes may keep owners from getting started, or “breaking up” with their property management companies. Often times, it’s easier to maintain the status quo than to start fresh, right? 

​

But here’s the thing – it doesn’t have to be.

​

Indigo Host Services (IHS) is here to help you get started, be successful, and most importantly, enjoy self-managing your vacation home.

​

IHS will help you in any way you can imagine. A few of the simple things we can do are:

• Help you understand pricing, seasons, and your competitors

• Provide lists on how to properly set up a property that will garner Five Star reviews and repeat guests

• Create waivers and rental agreements for your property

• Coordinate professional photography for your property

 

Some of the more complicated things we can do are:

• Setup your listings on the various booking platforms

• Help you build a support team of cleaners, handymen, plumbers, electricians, and errand runners

• Help you understand how to plan, file, and pay your monthly state and county taxes

• Provide guidance on branding

• Help you with guest challenges and damage reporting

• Visit your property to conduct an “Improve my Space” assessment to make your property better for guests

• Do everything on the backend needed to run the property (cleaners, maintenance, supplies, taxes), leaving just the guest management part to you

• Fully manage your property and guests even if your property isn't a fit for the Pastel Getaways collection of properties
