Our Services
From listing management to property consultations, we offer a full range of services to help ensure a smooth, stress-free renting experience.
-
Listing Management
We create listings with rental platforms such as Airbnb and VRBO and set up host accounts so that potential guests can view and choose your property for their next visit. Pricing for the property will be set according to a professionally created algorithm designed to attract more guests while maximizing profits. We create a unique narrative about your property and arrange photos to showcase your home’s many qualities.
-
Hosting & Guest Communications
All communications, including inquiries from potential guests to check-in and check-out instructions, are handled by our team. If a guest has a last-minute request or needs to adjust a reservation, we are there 24/7. In the event that a guest has a special concern regarding access to the property or the property itself after they arrive, we are there to provide the kind of guest service that one expects from an Airbnb Superhost.
-
Marketing
By assigning management responsibilities to Atlanta STRS, you have the benefit of top-notch promotion of the property within the rental platforms. Because we offer multiple listings, we deal with a high volume of requests for accommodations. This means we are in position to steer guests to your property even when another unavailable property within our group of listings was their first choice.
-
Professional Cleaning
After every check-out, our professional cleaning team will arrive at the property ready to scrub, scour and spray every inch of the home to make it perfect for the next guest. Cleaners take care to launder and change all linens in a way that makes the home feel “hotel fresh” for the next guest.
-
Inspections and Maintenance
Malfunctioning plumbing, energy, HVAC, and appliances can cost you not only the repair expense but also the lost opportunity cost of being unable to offer accommodations to potential guests. We work with vendors who specialize in maintaining residential systems and always recommend service contracts for HVAC maintenance and inspection as well as appliance repair.
-
Property Consultations
With our site staging service, our design professionals will make a site visit, measure the space, and procure furnishings that suit your home’s unique layout. Furnishings include everything from sofas, chairs and rugs to beds, lamps and accent pillows. After the home is completely set, we will create photos that best express your home’s perfect blend of comfort and style.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Our professional consultants will make a site visit and study relevant data to help you determine if short-term rental is the best strategy for your property. Guests choose to stay in private homes rather than hotels for a number of reasons, and they choose properties that meet their specific needs. Because of our vast experience in meeting the guests needs, we will be able to tell you whether your property is suitable for short-term rental. If it is better suited for long-term leasing, we can help with that, too. We’ve got you covered.
-
Professional hosting takes the tedious tasks of short-term rental hosting off your plate so you can focus on what you do best. At Atlanta STRS we attach our brand to your property, and every guest in your home is an opportunity to build our brand together. Managing guest experiences and meeting their expectations are fundamental aspects of hosting, and we take that very seriously. When your guests have a pleasant experience at your property, they more often than not provide feedback for potential future guests, and the best way to get positive feedback is through a thoughtful consistent approach to customer service.
-
When guests arrange to stay at your property they make payment through the platforms, such as Airbnb and VRBO. We set up a process for a specific percentage of the host fees collected by the platforms to be disbursed to Atlanta STRS. In other words, we don’t get paid until you do. We also have arrangements for services such as home design and furnishing, including installation. Prices for these services are set after a thorough site consultation.
-
Atlanta STRS is able to co-host your existing listing on the platform. If a site consultation is needed in order to develop strategies for improving volume and efficiency, we can do that, too. When we co-host your existing offering, we assume all of the booking and communication responsibilities that you have previously managed or delegated to another third party. As homeowner, you retain full access to listings, including calendars, pricing modules, and all in-app notifications and communications with guests.
-
Atlanta STRS manages rental listings for properties that include entire houses, townhomes, or apartments that may be privately accessed by guests. We do not manage listings for “rooms” but are pleased to offer management for residential spaces that contain multiple discrete dwelling units or apartments. If you are unsure how to categorize your property, we are always glad to make a site visit and help you develop a strategy for using your property in a way that provides a great guest experience while meeting the standards set out in your local short-term rental ordinance.
