What Does Short-Term Rental Management Cost in the Hudson Valley?

Haus management fees

• 25% of gross rental revenue, after guest-paid taxes and platform fees.
• $250 to $400 per month for property management, depending on the size of the home.
• $1,500 once for setup, inventory, listing work, and staging and photography coordination.

Some third-party work we coordinate carries a coordination fee, and recovered guest-damage claims can carry an administration fee. The fees page explains when those charges apply. The owner FAQ explains the agreement, notice period and possible early termination charge.

What management covers

Haus manages nightly pricing, the listing, bookings and guest messages. We also coordinate housekeeping, maintenance and vendors, and send a monthly statement of revenue, fees, expenses and payouts.

What costs extra

• Supplies and consumables, such as toiletries, paper goods and replacement linens.
• Vendor invoices for repairs and maintenance, plus the applicable coordination fee.
• Optional projects such as design, staging or furnishing.

Guests pay a cleaning fee for each stay, which Haus retains to cover turnover cleaning. Owners pay for cleaning after their own stays.

How to compare managers

Start with the same rental revenue and list each manager's commission basis, monthly charges, onboarding fee and extra fees. Check who keeps the cleaning fee, what is included and what happens to future bookings if you leave. See our comparison of national managers, local managers and self-managing for the differences in what each option handles.

Illustrative fee example

Suppose a home collects $60,000 in annual rent after guest-paid taxes and platform fees. The 25% commission would be $15,000. A $300 monthly fee would total $3,600, leaving $41,400 before property expenses and the one-time onboarding fee. This example shows how the fees add up. Actual rental income and expenses depend on the home.
