Switching to a new vacation rental software platform doesn't have to be a hassle. If you want a software provider that offers a fast and convenient transition, check out LiveRez.

Are you one of those property managers that knows your business needs new vacation rental software, but just dreads the process of switching software?

Have you made one or more of these common excuses to yourself?

• I don’t have the time
• The transition will take too long
• It will be way too much work
• I’ll have to re-train all of my employees
• My software is sub-par, but it’s better than the risk of switching, no matter how great the reward

At LiveRez, we don’t blame you for being hesitant, because historically switching software providers has been a hassle. Switching to some providers takes months upon months (sometimes over a year), and some providers charge more than $10,000 in start-up costs.

But you shouldn’t have to settle for lengthy and expensive implementations, much less sub-par software. At LiveRez, we can get most companies live in 30 days or less. In fact, our record is three days.

At LiveRez, we’ve instituted a number of processes to make sure your implementation process goes smoothly and is completed on time.

• Our kick-off calls ensure a smooth transition from the sales process to the implementation process
• You receive a dedicated implementation manager to guide you through the process and answer all of your questions
• We offer a live training webinar series, in addition to a vault full of videos and training documentation.
• You’ll enjoy responsive customer service located in our headquarters in Boise, ID (no oversees call centers here)
• For those that need it, we offer data migration assistance
• And if you’d like some SEO optimization, you can opt into our stellar SEO/SEM service for partners

You see, switching vacation rental software providers doesn’t have to be hassle. And, at LiveRez, we’re willing to prove that to you. If you’d like more information about making the switch to LiveRez, give us a call at (208) 639-6106 or e-mail sales@LiveRez.com.

A screen shot from Getting Away Together's episode in Kissimmee.

A new reality show highlighting the trend of sharing a vacation rental with families and friends is now airing on PBS. The show, Getting Away Together, is a part of a Vacation Rental Managers Association (VRMA) initiative to showcase the trend and raise awareness about vacation rentals as a growing alternative to hotels.

The show is expected to generate great publicity for the professionally-managed vacation rental industry and the thousands of managers across the nation. Boise-based LiveRez, the vacation rental software Gold Sponsor of the VRMA, works with more than 500 professional vacation rental manager partners from across North America and beyond.

“This show allows America to see firsthand what staying in a vacation rental is all about,” said Tracy Lotz, founder and CEO of LiveRez. “With Getting Away Together, the VRMA has done a great job documenting not only the value and quality of vacation rentals, but also the bonding friends and family experience when staying together.”

VRMA President Steve Trover said a lot of parties have been involved in getting this show on the air.

“Getting Away Together has been a collective effort of VRMA staff, board, and members, industry supporters and sponsors, and PineRidge Television,” Trover said. “It is exciting that so many PBS stations have picked up and started airing the show.  Getting Away Together strengthens VRMA's Discover Vacation Homes consumer awareness initiative, as millions of PBS viewers will be introduced to vacation rentals.”

A screen shot from Getting Away Together's episode in North Carolina's Outer Banks.

The show will follow groups of real vacationers as they experience all that vacation rentals have to offer. Cameras will follow the travelers as they enjoy the many local activities, dining opportunities, history and scenery of these great destinations, as well as showcase the variety of amenities offered by the vacation homes where the travelers stay.

“Trips taken with friends, children, grandparents and extended family represent one of the only consistently rising types of travel. As this ‘togethering’ trend continues, people are selecting vacation rentals for multi-bedroom accommodations and a sense of comfort under one roof,” said Steve Ingram, executive director of the VRMA. “Unlike other travel shows, Getting Away Together is the first reality travel series to focus on this trend. Each episode features a new group of travelers as they unwind with meaningful travel experiences in fun locales, with vacation rentals as their home base.”

And, if its producer’s track record is any indication, the show could see considerable success.

“The series is being produced by the Emmy Award-winning PineRidge Film & Television Company, which has proven travel series success with Great Hotels, Great Vacation Homes, Passport to Europe and more and is made possible in part through support from TripAdvisor®, CSA Travel Protection and our dynamic travel destination partners,” Ingram said.

The first full episode – which takes place in St. Augustine, FL – was posted online January 18. You can view a preview of the episode, along with previews of future episodes, embedded below. To check air times, visit GettingAwayTogether.com.

The show’s first season features thirteen episodes including popular destinations, such as St. Augustine, FL; Kissimmee, FL; Central Oregon; the Outer Banks of North Carolina; and Oceanside, CA.

Vacation rental software should be judged on return on investment.

A smart business investment means getting the highest percent of return possible from your investment. In technology, especially when it comes to vacation rental software, this couldn’t be more true.

When considering vacation rental software, smart managers look at return on investment when weighing start-up and monthly costs with the capabilities of the software. They consider what they can afford, what they could finance and what’s simply out of reach.

Any vacation rental software worth it beans should create you enough additional profit to pay for itself. The tough question is how do you determine which software will provide you with the most return.

At LiveRez, we know there are three primary ways vacation rental software makes you more money:

• It increases your bookings, raising your annual occupancy rate and growing your annual sales
• It reduces your overhead by cutting key operating costs like labor hours, office supplies, fuel consumption, IT expenses and more
• It helps grow your inventory by attracting new homes into your rental program, which creates new opportunities for sales and offers your guests more selection

Here at LiveRez, we have a track record of achieving these results for our partners. If you’re skeptical, you can always check out our many success stories at LiveRez.com.

Our staff is ready and willing to answer your questions about how we can help you achieve this type of ROI by increasing your bookings, reducing your overhead and growing your inventory.

Just give us a call at (208) 639-6106 or e-mail sales@LiveRez.com.

LiveRez's QuickBooks Integration for vacation rental accounting is approved by the North Carolina Real Estate Commission.

Since the turn of the new year, an elephant has plopped itself down in the corner of every business across America, and vacation rental managers aren’t immune.

That elephant is tax season – that dreaded part of the year when companies really start to realize how good (or bad) their current accounting software really is (if they have software at all). For many managers in the vacation rental industry, they are stuck with the accounting software that came with their vacation rental management platform. Some dislike their software so much, they export their data out of their system and import it into a consumer accounting software product.

At LiveRez, we knew there was a need for great accounting software in the vacation rental industry; that’s why we chose to make our industry-leading vacation rental software integrate with QuickBooks, the world’s most-trusted accounting software with more than 38 million users worldwide.

You may be using it already – but without a real-time integration.

According to a 2010 Vacation Rental Managers Association (VRMA) survey of its property manager members, more than 40 percent of respondents said they used QuickBooks, making it over eight times more popular than the next integrated accounting software platform.

We’re here to tell you that as a vacation rental manager, you don’t have to fear tax season.

Whether you’re unhappy with your current software’s accounting platform or simply want to upgrade to the industry’s best accounting integration – we can help solve your accounting problems while upgrading you to the industry’s best vacation rental software platform.

The beginning of the year is a great time to make the switch. Our implementation team is poised to make your transition as smooth as possible. And best yet, our team is the fastest in the industry – we can have you up and running in 30 days or less.

Last week TODAY aired a segment on a number of vacation rental scams, highlighting the importance of booking your vacation through a professional vacation rental manager.

Just last week TODAY highlighted yet another reason to rent from professional vacation rental managers. The segment (see video below) detailed a number of vacation rental scams where criminals listed and took payment to rent homes they did not own. In many cases, there was no way for the victims to recover their money, especially for those that wired funds or paid with a check.

Incidents like this have been widely reported in the news lately, stressing a growing concern about the security of renting vacation homes. The prevalence of these scams reinforces the importance of renting from professional vacation rental managers.

Steve Trover, CEO of All Star Vacation Homes in Orlando, FL, said that when researching vacation rentals, there are many things travelers can look for to feel confident in booking.

“Professional affiliations, such as the Better Business Bureau, AAA, VRMA (Vacation Rental Managers Association), and local affiliations, such as the chambers of commerce and destination marketing partnerships, show a commitment to the hospitality and travel industries,” Trover said. “Going with a professional manager gives travelers far more ability to check into the validity of the company and the property than if renting through an individual home owner or single listing online.”

According to Brooke Pfautz, of Vantage Resort Realty in Ocean City, MD, people are being too trusting of those they meet online.

“It surprises me how much research people will do when they are about to purchase an $800 to $1,000 computer. However, when they are ready to drop $2,000 to $4,000 on a vacation rental, they are willing to deal with a complete stranger that they found online,” Pfautz said.

Pfautz offered a number of suggestions for avoiding these scams, including checking the credentials of the rental company, paying with a credit card, being leery of prices that are well below the going rate, educating yourself about the company (reading reviews, asking for references, etc.) and checking the location of the property with Google Maps or Mapquest.

Steve Ingram, executive director of the VRMA, said that confidence and security during the booking process is just one of the many advantages of renting from a professional manager.

“Travelers wanting comfort and value should look for a professionally managed vacation rental to ensure consistent hospitality services and quality assurance standards, as well as professionally cleaned and managed homes, ongoing and objective inspections, and concierge-type services that provide destination expert advice,” Ingram said. “Established companies will offer an emergency guest services contact that guests can call 24 hours a day, seven days a week, for questions, maintenance issues, and more.”

Mark Tolan of Seaside Vacation Homes in Seaside, OR, also emphasized service, as well as security.

The TODAY segment detailed the stories of the victims of vacation rental scams -- both guests and home owners. You can view the segment embedded below.

"Aside from having an infrastructure of office personnel and contractors to resolve unexpected maintenance needs, using established management companies offers guests the peace of mind that they will have a place to stay,” Tolan said. “Not risking being homeless on vacation should more than make up for the minimal additional cost –  if there is any – for passing on that homeowner-managed property and going with an established brand.”

Tolan argues that properties that aren’t professionally managed may only appear to be a better deal, but upon further inspection the level of service far outweighs any additional cost.

“One of the biggest things vacationers take for granted is the service management companies provide,” Tolan said. “It is easy to shop for a deal online and ultimately go with what APPEARS to be the best deal – one that values physical product and price, and discounts or ignores service. Experienced travelers realize that established companies provide service, which holds significant value alongside the physical product.”

Like Trover, Cheryl Taylor of Ventura Properties also operates in Orlando. Taylor, whose company has been in business since 1989, said that her business has suffered over the years because of the general public’s concern with vacation rental scams – like the ones highlighted on the TODAY segment.

She says travelers will want to ask rental companies how long they’ve been in a business and verify online that the companies are not only licensed to do business, but also submit the required sales and resort taxes. You can verify business licenses with the state or county – or in Florida, at SunBiz.org.

Paying taxes may not seem like something that would directly affect guest experience, but Kevin Kirby of Five Star Vacation Homes in Celebration, FL, says it can definitely come into play – both in terms of security and the difference in price offered by those that don’t pay taxes.

“This figure of 13% (in Florida) is a big difference in price,” Kirby said, “but the largest difference is being worry-free that a county or state official isn’t going to knock on the door of the vacation home and evict the guests from a home that is illegally rented, leaving (the guest) with nowhere to go and a headache to sort through.”

Like Tolan, Kirby says travelers often overlook service in favor of a lower price. In making the case to his guests about the advantages of professionally managed properties, Kirby often shares this quote from John Ruskin:

“The bitterness of poor quality lingers long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten.”

A good resource for those looking to learn more about professionally managed vacation homes is Discover Vacation Homes, a VRMA initiative that details the benefits of vacation rentals and professional managers and offers resources in helping you plan your next vacation.

The ability to take online bookings through its LiveRez-powered website allowed My Mountain Cabin Rentals to cut down their call volume 60 to 70 percent.

My Mountain Cabin Rentals of North Georgia
Location: Blue Ridge, GA
Website: 1MyMountain.com
Quick Quote: “I attribute LiveRez to me being able to keep my doors open. And, more than just looking at green shoots of hope, we’re actually seeing success here.”

It’s a place where deer roam through back yards, where contracts are still based on hand shakes and where people are genuinely friendly and nice --  not because they want to sell you something, but because that’s who they are.

It’s a mountain-top community of about 1,500 acres, lined with cabins boasting amazing views and modern conveniences.

It’s only 90 minutes from Atlanta, GA, but resides in a completely different world, tucked away from the daily grind of every-day life.

It’s called My Mountain.

And if you’d like it to be your mountain for a day, a week or month, you should call Chris Middlebrook.

Middlebrook owns and operates My Mountain Cabin Rentals of North Georgia, which carries a growing inventory of more than 30 cabins all located in this beautiful community set amongst the backdrop of the Blue Ridge Mountains.

My Mountain Cabin Rentals has a growing inventory of more than 30 cabins, all with beautiful views of the mountains or the woods.

The atmosphere may sound too good to be true, but ask Middlebrook and he’ll tell you it’s no fable.

“That’s just how it is here,” he said. “It’s a different way of life.”

Just as the community and the nearby town of Blue Ridge are a throw-back, Middlebrook’s business reminds you of the days when customer service really was king.

Unlike much of the other property management companies in the area, which have cabins located across the county and beyond, Middlebrook manages only properties in the My Mountain community. It’s a big benefit to his guests, because all of his properties are within a 1-mile range from his office (only a two-minute drive).

“Basically, we all offer the same type of product and the same bar level of quality, but it’s the service that separates us,” he said.

For Middlebrook, service means answering guests’ phone calls any time of day, even if it’s a question as simple as how the satellite television works. And guests have recognized this high level of service.

My Mountain uses the front page of its website to highlight its many reviews from Trip Advisor. Currently the company has nearly 350 reviews – roughly 10 fold more than anyone in the area, Middlebrook estimates. And, the company boasts the exclusive “Excellent” rating on FlipKey and TripAdvisor.

My Mountain has nearly 350 reviews on Flip Key and Trip Advisor and boasts an impressive "Excellent" rating.

“It’s not a badge you see too often on websites, because it’s difficult to achieve,” he said.

Offering a wide range of unique properties that are all well maintained probably also helps Middlebrook in the rating department.

My Mountain Cabin Rentals of North Georgia offers a wide variety of cabins for rent, ranging from quaint two-bedroom, one-bath cabins that start at just over $100 a night to larger cabins that range up to 4 bedrooms and 3 baths and sleep up to 10 guests (but that still rent for well less than $200 a night).

All these cabins have beautiful views of either the mountains or the woods. And some of the larger cabins even have game rooms. And, they all come fully equipped with modern conveniences like WiFi, satellite television and hot tubs.

According to Middlebrook, all you need to bring when you stay is your food and your clothes.

“I tell people that these are not Daniel Boone cabins,” he said.

All of the cabins in My Mountain’s inventory, with just one exception, are pet friendly.

“Pet people actually makes great guests because they’re so appreciative to be able to bring their pet, which is not really a pet, but one of the family,” he said.

Once you’re settled in your cabin, you won’t have a long drive to get out and enjoy the area. The town of Blue Ridge, Blue Ridge Lake, and Lake Nottely are all just 10 minutes away. And, Lake Chatuge is just is 20 minutes away.

There’s no shortage of activities in the area. Among the many activities in the Blue Ridge area, guests can:

• Take in a number of fall festivals
• Embark on scenic drives and motorcycle tours
• Enjoy whitewater rafting and tubing
• Take advantage of the area’s many fishing/hunting opportunities
• Hit one of the many golf courses
• Set off on foot via one of the many hiking trails
• Enjoy the back country on horseback
• Visit nearby state parks
• Check out local wineries
• And, enjoy numerous shopping and dining opportunities in Blue Ridge

Some of My Mountain Cabins Rentals' larger cabins come equipped with game rooms, like the one above.

“We are able to offer a full spectrum of attractions for adults and for kids,” he said.

As one can imagine, tourism is a big industry in the area. But, the recession of 2008 and 2009 really hit the rental business in the area hard. Some companies didn’t survive. And, My Mountain Cabin Rentals of North Georgia was certainly not immune to this downturn.

But, in one of the biggest downturns the industry has experienced, when business was down and money was tight, Middlebrook made a big investment – one that he’s still reaping the benefits of today.

He made the choice to become a LiveRez partner.

“I attribute LiveRez to me being able to keep my doors open,” he said. “And, more than just looking at green shoots of hope, we’re actually seeing success here.”

Middlebrook noted that business is up and things are definitely headed in a positive direction. He knew it was good when this past year he had booked out for the holidays way ahead of time and was actually referring travelers to other companies in the area.

But, where the system has really helped Middlebrook is in reducing his overhead. Since switching to LiveRez, Middlebrook has been able to significantly reduce labor hours. In fact, when one of his key employees moved away, his business was able to absorb that position without hiring a replacement.

Since implementing online booking through his LiveRez website, Middlebrook says his call volume is now down 60 to 70 percent.

And there’s been a reduction in his printing and mailing costs because terms and conditions are now verified electronically.

“I consider it a major reduction in my daily overhead costs,” he said. “You could have told me that, and I wouldn’t have believed it until I saw it.”

You can experience beautiful sunsets like the one above right from your porch if you stay with My Mountain Cabin Rentals.

The system’s cloud-based platform also gives Middlebrook a level of convenience and security.

“A couple times I had my computer crash and the whole world came to a crashing halt,” he said. “(With LiveRez), I don’t have to worry about that.”

Because the system is available 24-7 online, Middlebrook can take the business with him wherever he goes – which helps when you run a business that’s so committed to serving the customer.

“I would definitely recommend LiveRez to anyone who can financially afford it,” he said. “And, if they can’t afford it, they should find a way to finance it if they’re serious about doing this business.”

LiveRez offers its managers the ability to give their owners a special way to log in to the LiveRez platform so these owners can access information about their properties and make their own bookings.

As a vacation rental manager, you deal with two primary customers: your guests and your owners. So, any comprehensive vacation rental software will need to help you manage your dealings with not only guests, but also owners. That’s why LiveRez’s vacation rental software offers owner logons to help strengthen your relationship with owners and make both your lives and your owners’ lives easier.

What’s an Owner Logon?

You may be wondering what exactly an owner logon is. Simply speaking, owner logons offer your owners a special way to log into your software to see reports on their properties and to make their own reservations. There are many benefits to owner logons:

• Increase engagement with owners by keeping them informed about their properties
• Reducing the amount of time you spend answering questions and concerns from owners regarding information that is now available through the owner logon
• Allowing owners to make reservations on their own time

In addition to owner logons, the LiveRez system allows managers to automate a number of e-mails to owners notifying them of events relating to their properties like reservations, payments and maintenance issues.

LiveRez partners are afforded an unlimited amount of owner logons because as partners in your success we want you to work with as many owners as possible and grow the amount of properties you manage.
