Staypilot Australia has been managing our property for over 6 months and we couldn't be happier. They have promptly and effectively dealt with any issues, and have made the whole process run smoothly and stress free. We are very happy with the pricing and the returns generated by their management. Their communication is excellent, they treat our property as their own, I would highly recommend working with them.

Frequently asked questions
From prospective property investors to current Airbnb home owners - let Staypilot guide you through the short-term rental market and ensure you are prepared for every aspect of listing your home as a vacation rental.
-
Is my property suited for short-term rental?If your property offers a private and comfortable space, it can be listed as a short-term rental. Homes in tourist areas are an obvious choice for Airbnb travellers, but the reality is that most properties have something to offer on the short-stay market. Even if your home is not in a tourist area, it can attract guests visiting for a number of reasons such as for business or study.
-
How much can I earn with an Airbnb property?On average, short-term rental earnings can exceed traditional rental income by 30% or more. Staypilot can provide you with a free local market analysis of your area if you would like to learn more about the potential of your home.
-
How successful will my property be on Airbnb?How well a property will perform on the short-stay market can vary, but the following 3 factors play a crucial role in the success of your property: 1. Location - Proximity to popular attractions, event spaces and holiday destinations all increase the demand for your property 2. Amenities - Guests love a cosy stay with basic amenities like air conditioning and wifi. Adding luxuries such as a spa to your home makes it even more attractive 3. Pricing - Although location and amenities allow owners to charge an additional premium, providing good value for money is always certain to attract guests A Staypilot local Airbnb manager will craft the ideal strategy to ensure that your home is performing at its best potential in your local market.
-
Do I need a manager or can I host my own property?Managing your own listing's pricing, guest communication, cleaning and other housekeeping can take in excess of 10 hours per week. Not to mention the extensive time it takes to setup your home for the short-term market. Self-managing your own property is a serious commitment of time that owners may not have - that's where partnering with a manager like Staypilot can be suitable and beneficial.
-
How is Staypilot different from other Airbnb managers?When partnering with Staypilot, your home is managed by an experienced local short-term manager. This manager is involved in the entire operation of your property and is your direct contact - no hand-balling or call centres. You manager will combine this local experience with deep data-driven insights to optimise the performance of your property and give you an advantage over the competition. This all leads to above-average rental yields from your home.
