Put Your 30A Vacation Home In Local, Expert Hands
Estimate Your Vacation
Rental Income Potential
Our proven marketing strategies maximize the earning potential of your home or condo. By providing extensive exposure for your property and utilizing cutting-edge analytical tools, we can generate thousands in rental income. We only make money when you make money!
A well-maintained property is key to leveraging the power of positive reviews and repeat guests. Our team works hard to ensure guest satisfaction through our home evaluations and maintenance work.
Our owner-centric foundation shines through everything we do. At Live the Gulf Coast Vacation Rentals, our owners are our partners and we pride ourselves on building strong, trusting relationships with each and every one.
Strategic Revenue Management
Our dynamic pricing strategy uses an industry-leading yield management program to monitor, analyze, and adjust your rental rates. By combining supply-and-demand tracking with hyper-local market data, we can promote both profitability and occupancy of your home.
Powerful Property Marketing
Our marketing works to make an immediate impact on area shoppers. Our digital PPC/SEO strategy and regular email campaigns attract prospective guests to our listings, and then our professional photography and digital floorplans work to convert those leads into successful bookings.
Loyal Repeat Guests
We keep in communication with an extensive database of former guests, so you'll have a waiting list of loyal guests from day 1.
OTAs/Third Party Channels
We use all the latest third party booking sites like AirBnB and VRBO to maximize the visibility of your home and ensure that no matter how your guests find your home, booking is a breeze.
Honest Commission Split
Other companies play games to avoid fairly splitting revenue with their owners, by building out extensive fees outside of the rental rate. Not us! Every penny a guest pays for a reservation is subject to our agreed-upon commission split.
Direct Brand Strength
Guests know and trust the Live the Gulf Coast Vacation Rentals brand! Nearly 50% of our bookings are made directly with our brand, as opposed to third-party booking sites. Our 5% repeat-renter discount and powerful brand presence work to pull in more leads through our website and reservations department.
Guest Screening
Our strict guest screening standards help protect our homes. For each reservation request, our team will inquire about the nature of the reservation and ensure compliance with our standards and policies, including our 25-year age minimum for our guests.
Damage Insurance Protection
To better protect our owners, we’ve built a $5000 insurance policy into every reservation to cover any guest damages that may occur. If a lamp breaks or a stool cracks, we’ll be able to get a replacement in the home at no cost to you.
REST EASY KNOWING YOUR PROPERTY IS IN EXPERT HANDS
24/7 Support
Other companies just work 9-5, but not us. If you need us, you can reach us. Always! Our central office is located near Inlet Beach, making our team easy to reach in-person or over the phone.
Meticulous Property Inspections
Our in-house property inspectors perform thorough inspections during every guest's stay. By maintaining a low staff-to-home ratio, our team is able to complete reliable and thorough home inspections using 3-to-5 page checklists, customized to the individual property.
Exceptional Housekeeping
We are so devoted to offering consistent cleans that we developed our own Housekeeper Academy to ensure every step is followed to guarantee satisfaction. Wherever possible, we keep the same housekeepers in the same houses, allowing our team to become experts on the unique care and upkeep of your home.
