Vacation Homes Management

Summittime is the premier vacation home management company serving Grand County. We are pleased to offer a full range of vacation home management services, including:

Owner Relations

Our dedication is to build long-term relationships and work hard to get to know our owners and their properties. We are committed to our owner’s financial success, in terms of ensuring the highest overnight rate at the highest occupancy level while taking exception care of their home.

Property Care

We have partnered up with Bluebird cleaning, one of Grand Counties most trustworthy cleaning service providers. Their team of housekeepers and inspectors is diligent in their work and after each stay any guest damages to the property will be reported. These will be then claimed against the Host Protection Insurance (liability coverage for up to $1,000,000) and rectified.

Marketing and Sales

Using the world’s most successful OTA with over 150 million users, sales is a breeze. However, it requires a dedicated and optimized marketing strategy which includes Search Engine Optimization, that we and our strategic partners optimize on a regular basis.

Revenue Management

We employee a sophisticated revenue management software that applies changes in real-time, taking into account: historical performance, competitive landscape, and guest demand. Achieving optimal occupancy and the highest possibly nightly rate.

Transparent Reporting

With each booking an email will be sent out informing the owner of the reservation details.
As we do not restrict our owners on when and for how long they can use their homes, the online portal allows owners to view the calendar and block dates without any restrictions.

Customer Care

Our business model is based on providing guests an exceptional experience, that they will share with others (public reviews). We maintain over 90% 5-star reviews and an average of 4.8 starts. However, we ensure that we only host verified guest.

Short Term Rental Market

The last decade has seen a drastic change in the vacation rental market. As new distribution channels have emerged (i.e. Airbnb, VRBO, etc,) lodging industry and in particular short-term vacation rentals have seen a drastic change. Marketing and renting vacation homes has become more accessible to individual homeowners.

The need to employee a vacation rental management company is no longer a necessity but left to those who do not wish to invest the time and energy.

A successfully and profitable vacation rental requires a full-time commitment from its host. As today’s travelers have become savvier and are generally well informed about the market and what is on offer, today’s host needs to stay up-to-date and have reliable network of service providers in order to meet the ever-growing needs of guests.

What Makes Us Different

Unlike other service providers, we are well aware of the above and are transparent in our approach. The services we provide are all geared toward maximizing the income for our homeowners. Our fee structure is based on income rather than revenue (the industry norm), making it in our mutual interest to keep the operational costs down.

Our track record shows that the management fee we charge, we make up for in the revenue increase we achieve.

The fact that differentiates us most from other service providers is that we do not impose restrictions on when or for how long you can use your home. Allowing you the same flexibility you would have if you managed the rental yourself.
