The off season is a great time to reconnect with your homeowners and let them know in more ways than one that you are doing everything possible to ensure they have the most successful rental home possible. From hosting holiday parties to reaching out to owners one-on-one, there are ample things that property managers do to ensure their owners feel like they chose the right vacation rental company.

But with LSI’s help, you can take on even more initiatives with less stress through automated processes, and specifically, our Survey Tool! This versatile tool can be utilized in multiple areas of your company, and especially when it comes to initiatives that owners love.

Here’s just a sample of a few projects you can tackle this season using the Survey Tool that are sure to impress your homeowners.

Property Inspections

After a long season of rental guests, it’s natural for homes to have a little wear and tear. Use the Survey Tool to create detailed inspection forms to take a closer look and examine your properties for any damage, and utilize the off season as an opportunity to inspect your homes, and ensure they made it through the season unscathed.

Property Assessments and Suggestions

A great initiative that will demonstrate that you are looking out for your homeowners’ best interest is to do a thorough review of their home and offer suggestions! What features are in great shape and modern, and which features could use an upgrade? How about décor or furnishings? And what can each owner do to improve their home and generate more reservations? Taking this initiative is a powerful way to show that you are constantly looking for ways to boost your owners’ income.

Mid-Winter Checks

There are a number of potential issues in the off season! From frozen or broken pipes, to winter storm damage, to break-ins in vacant neighborhoods, unoccupied homes can be susceptible to a wide array of problems. Keep tabs on your properties with a mid-winter check-up to assure your homeowners that even if they are miles away, their property is being well taken care of.

Updated Photos

Photos can make a world of difference when it comes to booked weeks, so make sure you regularly update your photos to show your owners that you care about their first impression! With the Survey Tool, you can create checklists for your home, and keep track of which properties may need updated pics.
