In this episode of The Co-Host Bros Podcast, Matt Codd and Austin Spitz chat with Eric Goldreyer, a seasoned short-term rental operator who’s doing something bold — building his own fee-free OTA to bypass platforms like Airbnb.
Eric shares how he went from hosting to creating his own booking platform, why direct booking isn’t just a buzzword, and how hosts can reclaim control over their income, branding, and guest relationships.
Inside:
- Why Eric built an OTA instead of just running listings
- The future of booking fees (and how to beat them)
- Tips for building your own brand & direct booking strategy
- How to shift from “host” to “owner-operator mindset”Join Matt's FREE Skool group 👉 https://www.skool.com/co-host-bro-2393Follow the show
