How to choose a holiday home manager on the Gold Coast
Check what is included
Ask for a written list: listing and photos, pricing, guest messages, cleaning and laundry, maintenance, owner statements. Extras such as linen, consumables or repairs are often charged on top.
Compare like-for-like fees
Get the fee model in writing (a percentage of booking revenue, a fixed fee, or both) and ask what it is a percentage of: gross bookings, or revenue after platform fees and cleaning.
Ask about local rules
A good manager on the Gold Coast knows the local licensing, permit and tax rules and can tell you what applies to your property.
Look at portfolio size and focus
A manager with a handful of homes may give you more attention; a larger one may have more staff and marketing reach. Ask how many homes each property manager looks after.
Read reviews and check credentials
Look for owner reviews, not just guest reviews, and a claimed or verified profile. Ask for references from owners with similar homes.
Read the contract
Check the minimum term, notice period, who owns the listing and reviews if you leave, and how and when you are paid.

What does a holiday home manager do?
A full-service manager markets the property on booking sites and its own website, sets prices, handles guest messages and check-in, arranges cleaning, laundry and maintenance, and sends the owner regular statements. Some offer only part of this (for example guest communication or co-hosting). This is also called holiday rental management, short-term rental management or Airbnb management.
How do I choose a holiday home manager on the Gold Coast?

Do managers pay to be listed or ranked on VRM Atlas?
