MAXIMIZE YOUR RETURNS Professional Vacations Rental Management and Marketing Services

GETTING STARTED WITH BRAYCATIONS From the initial meeting and tour of the property to being able to accept bookings can take anywhere from a few weeks to a couple of months. This will depend on how ready your property is before we start working together. Here is a list of what needs to be accomplished before we can start accepting bookings.

Have our first meeting at your property to evaluate what is needed and if your property is the right fit for Braycations.

This is when you should start the permitting process as this needs to be settled before we can accept bookings.

Sign the Vacation Rental Management Agreement and other necessary forms.

Furnish the property if necessary and have the keyless entry lock installed.

Address any maintenance work that might be needed.

Have a deep clean of the property done if necessary.

Once the property is furnished, we will schedule for professional photography.

Braycations will begin to build your property on our website so we can push that out to other booking platforms as soon as we are able to accept reservations.

File for a sales tax license so we are in regulation.

Start accepting bookings!
