Fees, plainly.
Most managers make you ask. Here is our entire fee structure, in full, with what each fee covers and what it doesn't. No asterisks.
What does Haus charge to manage your home?
Three fees, all of them on this page: a 25% management commission on the rent your house collects, after guest-paid taxes and platform fees; a property management fee of $250 to $400 per month depending on house size; and a one-time $1,500 onboarding fee.
of the rent your house collects
Our management commission, applied to gross rental revenue net of taxes and fees. Guest-paid taxes and platform fees come out before the percentage applies, so we never take a cut of money that was never yours. This covers pricing, listing management, guest communication, booking management, and coordination of every stay.
per month, by house size
The property management fee. It covers vendor coordination, availability for repairs, and everything that happens to your house outside of guest stays: the frozen pipe in February, the plow guy, the hot tub tech. Bigger houses carry more of this work, so the fee scales with size.
one-time onboarding
Everything it takes to go from your house to a performing listing: setup, inventory, staging coordination, listing build and optimization, and photography coordination. You pay it once.
What costs extra?
Consumables and supplies (toiletries, linens when they wear out), actual vendor invoices for repairs and maintenance, and optional design or furnishing projects. Cleaning is paid by guests at cost. We don't inflate cleaning fees, and we don't mark up vendor work.

Year one also includes the $1,500 onboarding fee. Consumables and vendor invoices vary by house and pass through at cost.
A cheap fee on weak revenue is expensive.
The fee percentage is the wrong number to optimize. What lands in your account is the fee applied to the revenue a manager actually produces: the pricing discipline, the listing quality, the reviews. A manager who charges less and books less nets you less.
For context: our 25% applies to rent, once guest-paid taxes and platform fees are out. The closest local competitor publishes 20 to 30% on the same basis, so we sit inside that range. The real gap is with the nationals: owners report all-in rates reaching 35 to 45% once every line item lands. Our 25% is the whole number, published above, with nothing waiting behind it.
