Big news — I’m launching something new! After 6 years of immersing myself in the ever-growing and ever-evolving vacation rental management industry, I’ve seen firsthand how challenging it can be for small to mid-sized property managers to grow sustainably—especially without the resources for full-time sales or business development staff.

That’s why I created VRM BIZ DEV — a fractional business development service for vacation rental management companies ready to scale smarter. I’ll be partnering with a select group of VRMs in non-competing markets to help drive homeowner acquisition, grow portfolios, and build long-term success—without the overhead of a full-time hire. It’s professional, strategic, and will be tailored for each unique business.

🌟 If you're a vacation rental manager looking to grow smarter, not just bigger—DM me. I'd love to hear about your business and explore how we can work together! And pass along to anywhere you believe can use my help!

Launch date: September 2025
Logo and website coming soon — stay tuned!

CEO says they'll need millions of more hosts to keep up with post-pandemic demand. What this says to me is that there's huge opportunity for , for homeowners to consider a second property to rent and to also use, and for the owners of properties they already have that sit empty or hardly used. If you have a LTR how about transitioning to short term? Short term renting was on an upward trajectory even before Covid. Now is the time to get involved.

The chief executive of the home-rental platform Airbnb said: "[W]e think there's going to be a travel rebound coming that's unlike anything we've ever seen."
