Switching managers
Most owners who call us already have a manager or a live listing. Switching does not have to mean starting again.
If the listing is already on your own account
This is the simple case. You invite us as a co-host on the listing you already have. Nothing moves, so the reviews stay where they are and so does your Superhost status. When your current manager's notice period ends, you remove them as co-host and we carry on from the same listing.
If the listing is on your manager's account
Reviews stay with the listing they were left on, so they stay with whoever holds that account. We set up a listing on your own account, with us added as co-host, so that this is the last time you start over. If the photographs belong to your current manager, we arrange new ones.
Check your notice period first
How much notice you owe your current manager is set by your contract with them, not by us. Read the termination section before you give notice, and look for what it says about bookings already on the calendar. If anything in it is unclear, ask them in writing before you sign anything with us.
Guests already booked
Guests who have booked keep their bookings. Before the handover date, agree with your current manager in writing which stays they look after and which ones we do. Splitting by check in date is the usual way and the simplest to check afterwards.
How long it takes
The longest part is usually the notice period in your current contract. The rest runs alongside it: we walk the house, send you a proposal, take the co-host invite, and set up pricing, cleaning, the smart lock and the photographs so the first guest after the handover arrives to a house that is ready.
What we need from you
- The links to every listing the house has, on every platform
- Your current management contract, so we can work out the handover date with you
- Access to your own platform account, so you can send the co-host invite
- Access details for the house, and the cleaners, pool or lawn vendors you want to keep
- Copies of the licences and tax registrations already in place
If you are not sure what you have, send what you can find and we will work out the rest with you. What it costs is on the pricing page.
