Our Story
» Meet Leah and Leanne
A while back, we traveled the world and stayed in apartments all over, that we rented through Airbnb, VRBO and other services.
Some of them were great! Some of them weren’t so hot. For some of the great places, the process was disorganized and left a bad taste in our mouths.
When we got back, we wanted to make it easy for hosts to manage their places, by removing the hassle involved with short-term rentals.
So we created Managebnb.
At Managebnb, we do the annoying stuff involved with renting your place for short-term stays. We create an attractive online listing. We do key drop-off and pick-up, at any time of day. We’re on call for guest support and emergencies, so you don’t have to be. And we clean your place after they leave.
Whether you’re just starting out, or you already have a successful listing, we’ll manage your place, give you your time back and make your life easier.
