Is It Time to Fire Your Airbnb Property Manager?

Hiring a property manager or Co-Host can take a huge weight off your shoulders—but what happens when the relationship isn’t working? In this episode, we break down how to evaluate whether your property manager is helping or hurting your business.

We cover:

  • Common frustrations hosts have with property managers (and when they’re valid)
  • The difference between a property manager and a Co-Host—and why expectations matter
  • Key contract terms you should review before making a decision
  • Signs that it’s time to fire your property manager—and when it’s NOT
  • What to consider before taking on self-management
  • How to have a productive conversation before making a big change

If you’re feeling frustrated with your current setup, this episode will help you decide whether to stay, go, or adjust your expectations.
