About the Homeowner

After inheriting a beloved family home, the homeowner wanted to keep it well-maintained while generating income to cover upkeep costs. Living more than two hours away, they needed a solution that would make managing the property simple, reliable and stress-free, without losing access for personal visits.

The goal:

To rent the home short-term to fund maintenance, while maintaining flexibility for family stays.

The Challenge

Before joining Hometime, managing the property remotely felt impossible.

They faced:

  • Long travel times to handle guest changeovers and maintenance
  • Time-consuming cleaning and communication
  • Difficulty ensuring presentation standards from afar
  • The need for a management partner they could trust

How Hometime helped

After discovering Hometime through a family connection and online research, the homeowner reached out and immediately noticed the difference.

With local host Martin, the homeowner gained:

  • Hands-on support: Martin personally assisted with setup, furniture selection and styling, even spending full days helping assemble and arrange items.
  • Expert presentation: Leveraging his experience, Martin advised on small layout and design changes that made a big difference to guest appeal.
  • Local reliability: Living hours away was no longer an issue. “...he's, you know, very patient and actually puts up with my text messages asking random things,” the homeowner said.

The Results

Earnings exceeded expectations, even after management and cleaning fees.
With dynamic pricing during peak seasons, the property achieved higher yields than expected.
The homeowner now enjoys knowing their family property is well cared for without the stress of day-to-day management.
