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.
The math on a $60K year
An illustrative example with round numbers and our real fee structure applied. Your revenue depends on your home.
Gross revenue
after guest-paid taxes and platform fees
Haus fees
$15,000 commission (25%) + $3,000 monthly fees ($250 × 12)
After recurring management fees
70% of the example revenue, before onboarding and property expenses
In year one, subtract the $1,500 onboarding fee as well: $40,500 remains before property expenses. This example does not deduct repairs, supplies, utilities, insurance, property taxes, financing or income taxes. It is a fee illustration, not a profit forecast.
Compare the full annual cost.
A commission percentage alone cannot tell you which manager is the better fit. Compare the fee basis, fixed charges, services and property expenses using the same revenue assumption.
- Use the same starting revenue. Check whether taxes, platform fees and cleaning are included in each manager's commission basis.
- Add every recurring charge. Include monthly fees and any separate service charges, plus onboarding for the first year.
- Ask for evidence behind projected revenue. Request comparable homes, the period measured and a sample owner statement.
- Compare the work included. Distinguish coordinating maintenance from paying the repair invoice.
Our owner services overview explains the responsibilities. The manager interview checklist helps you compare answers, and our case studies show individual results with their limits.
